Well to solve this problem, we need the density of ice. The density of ice is around 0.917 g / cm^3.

Now to find for the mass, simply multiply the volume with the density.

That is:

Mass = density * volume

 

However, let us convert first the volume into units of cm^3.

Volume = 7660 ft^3 = 2.1691 x 10^8 cm^3

 

Therefore the mass is:

mass = 0.917 g / cm^3 * 2.1691 x 10^8 cm^3

mass = 1.989 x 10^8 g

mass = 1.989 x 10^5 kg
