The density of gold is 19.3 g cm3 The density of iron pyrite is 5.0 g cm3 If a nugget of iron pyrite and a nugget of gold each have a mass of 50 g what can you conclude about the volume of each nugget?

The nugget of gold has a volume of 2.6 cm3, and the nugget of pyrite has a volume of 10 cm3.


What mineral property can be used to distinguish between pyrite and chalco pyrite?

Pyrite also known as "fool's gold" is a mineral that has both a different chemical, morphological and physical characteristics than gold. Gold is denser (i.e. the same size of gold is much heavier than the that of pyrite). Gold's average density is 17.64 g/cm3 while Pyrite's density is on average 5.01 g/cm3. The chemical formulas are different. Gold's chemical formula is "Au" while Pyrite's is and iron sulfate mineral with a formula of "FeS2". The color is also different, gold appears the color of gold while pyrite is more bronze in color. The crystallographic form of the minerals also vary. Gold is a very soft mineral while Pyrite is much harder (gold has a hardness of 2.5 while Pyrite is 6.5). To distinguish between a sample of each, you could scratch the surface of gold using your fingernail which you would not be able to do with pyrite. You can try to scratch it because pyrite or fools gold much harder then gold so if it doesn't scratch that much it is most likely pyrite or fools gold. You can tell them apart by looking at their reflection and streak. Also, gold is much more dense than pyrite, so the same volume would 'weigh' about 3.5 times more. Gold has a hardness of about 2.5, while pyrite is about 6 (Gold is softer and more malable). Streak is used to distinguish between Gold and Pyrite.

What can you conclude from seeing identical containers with identical fish in them but with different volume of water in each container?

The one with the greater surface area would have more oxygen available to the fish. The one with the greater volume has a fixed amount of oxygen that can be dissolved in a given amount. The one with the greater surface area has more oxygen available over time.

Which has more mass quartz or pyrite?

There's no way to answer your question. More accurately, there is no way to answer your question without sounding like a smart-ass. We can't tell which has more mass unless we know how much of each you have to begin with! If you've got a pound of quartz and 10 pounds of pyrite, the pyrite is more massive, because objects with greater mass have greater weight. If you've got only an ounce of pyrite, your one-pound sample of quartz is more massive. Here's a question for you: What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of rocks? Many people who answer too quickly say, "Rocks." And they'd be wrong. Since both weigh a pound, they have the same weight and, therefore, have the same mass. In other words, they both contain the same amount of matter. Perhaps what you meant to ask is What has the greater density? Density is mass per unit volume. So, if you had, say, a cubic foot of quartz and a cubic foot of pyrite, then you could ask Which is more massive? or Which has greater mass? That would be a question we could answer definitively. Quartz has a density of about 2.65 grams per cubic centimeter. Pyrite's density is about 4.9 g/cc. So a cubic centimeter of pyrite is more massive than a cc of quartz.
