Yes. Gold will sink in water as it is VERY heavy.

Gold does not react with water or dissolve in it, so it remains intact. However, when gold is submerged in water, it may collect dirt or debris that can affect its appearance.

Is it redundant to write submerged under water when submerged means to descend under the water's surface?

It would only be redundant if the context had already made it unambiguous that it was water. It is possible to be submerged under any liquid: for example french fries are cooked submerged under hot oil (they can't be cooked submerged under hot water).Yes, "submerged underwater" is redundant. Submerged under anything is redundant since the prefix "sub-" means "under." In most cases, the use of "submerged" alone is sufficient. In case there is some question about the substance something is submerged in (not necessarily liquid, not necessarily tangible), you might occasionally have use for "submerged in water."

A 34.5-g gold is dropped into a graduated cylinder containing water by how many milliliters does the measured volume increase?

The volume increase will be equal to the volume of the gold submerged in the water. The volume of the gold can be calculated by dividing its mass by its density (19.32 g/cm³ for gold). Submerging the gold in water will displace an equal volume of water, resulting in the measured volume increase.


Can bamboo grow submerged in water?

What did Archimedes create to defend Syracuse?

Archimedes elucidated the concept of density. Both crowns weighed the same. Other methods at the time to determine the purity of the gold were destructive (ie melting point comparison). When he bathed he saw that his body displaced the water and it occurred to him that the volume of displaced water was equal to the volume of himself submerged. He weighed both crowns as well as a piece of gold of similar weight. He then submerged each crown and measured the displaced water. The crown that had displaced the same amount of water as the gold piece was made of pure gold, rather than a fake.


What is submerged density of soil?

Is duckweed partially submerge or fully submerged?

No, it is a floating plant, i know you might argue that the roots are underwater while the leaves are above but actually that counts as a floating plant, or else water hyacinth and water lettuce are half-submerged too. Floating plants is a plant that has it's leaves above water and it's roots dangling in water, partially submerged is leaves above water but roots in the soil below water, completely submerged is the roots in the soil below and the leaves also below water surface. -LJTG
