What is the best way to determine if an object is made of pure silver?

If there isn't a fineness marking on the object, t's not easy to do at home. You need to run a specific-gravity test and then possibly use a chemical agent (often an acid) to check for a reaction. In any case it's essentially impossible to have 100% silver because it's extremely difficult to remove all impurities during refining. It may seem like hair-splitting but 99.9% is the closest most items can be to "pure" silver.

How do you calculate the alcohol percentage in home brew beer when you do not have an initial specific gravity reading?

Ok, so you forgot to take an original gravity reading (O.G.). Hopefully you brewed with a kit or a recipe that tells you the anticipated O.G. Get that number and then when your homebrew finishes get the final gravity reading (F.G.). Calculate the alcohol percentage with this calculation: % ABV = ((anticipated O.G.) - (F.G.)) / (specific gravity of ethanol) % ABV = ((anticipated O.G.) - (F.G.)) / 0.789
