How do you determine whether or not the crown was pure gold or not?
you weigh its density and compare it with the density of gold, if both densities are same, then the crown is made of pure gold. if the density of the crown is lower than the density of gold, then the crown is made of materials that are cheaper or have a density that is less than gold, meaning that it is not made of pure gold.
How does the acrchimedes crown story relate to matter?
The Archimedes story relates that Archimedes had been trying to determine if the King's crown was pure gold, without having to melt it down (destroying it) to see. Archimedes sat down in the tub and noted that the water rose in the tub, and that he realized that the volume of water displaced was equal to the volume of Archimedes himself. This gave him an insight into how to determine the volume of the crown; by submerging the crown in water and measuring how far the water rose, this would give him the volume of the crown. He could then weigh the crown and calculate the density of the crown, and determine that the crown was not pure gold.

Should the crown jewels belong to India?
No. Some of the crown jewels were made BEFORE India was even a colony, and no crown jewels have ever left the UK, so it would be stupid.The Imperial Crown of India was worn to India by King-Emperor George V, but it was made in the UK and therefore belongs to them, similar to the Koh-I-noor which belongs to Great Britain.
