Which one is more heavier the real gold or the fake gold?
the fake one ...if u just see the mass then the volume
If Archimedes had only been able to find a piece of pure gold with a mass one-half that of the crown how could he have determined whether the crown was pure gold?
Archimedes came across concept of density - that is MASS divided by VOLUME. For each substance this ratio is different but a CONSTANT for that substance. Thus the mass you are dealing with is irrelevant if the crown had the same ratio as the piece of pure gold then the crown was pure god, if it did not then the crown was not gold.
What type of gold is most likely to corrode?
Fake gold is the type that is most likely to corrode. Real gold does not corrode.
What does In in the periodic table stand for?
periodic table stands for all the elments scientist have found till today. Example: gold, silver, oxegon, carbon dioxide,ect.
What is the solvent in the solid solution of a gold ring?
The solvent and solute in yellow gold is a solid solution of solutes (silver) and copper) in a solvent (gold). Sorry Please dont rate this bad, I am just giving you a possible answer. :)
Why did Archimedes invent the golden crown?
Archimedes thought that if the gold crown and the gold bar had the same mass and volume, the crown was pure gold and if they didn't, the crown was a fake and the jeweller was a fraud. (I just had to do this for homework. I'm right!)
How was density used to detect fraud?
Archimedes was told by the king to find out if his crown was made of pure gold, calculating the density of the crown, Archimedes found it to be a mix of gold and silver.
How did Archimedes found the purity of crown?
Archimedes when went into his bath tub to bathe at that time he observed water flowing out of bath tub. He observed that the water displaced should be equal to the mass of his body or volume of his body.similarly somehow knew the density of gold and found out the volume of gold needed to make crown of that much weight hence he got the mass of gold crown. Now he got mass of gold crown and this mass needed to be equal to the water displaced when crown put in water. If the crown was pure then the masses would be equal AND IF NOT then the mass of crown found by Archimedes would be drastically more or drastically less because the person who made the crown would have used another metal.
Did the great plains have gold?
No. The Great Plains had was devoid of many minerals. Why did people think there was? Because the Spanish found gold in the Mesas and Jungles, and fake explorers "found" gold in the Plains. So people went looking for gold and found none.
You swallowed a gold tooth crown how long to eliminate?
swallowed gold crown
Was Archimedes crown pure gold?
Yes Archimedes crown was pure gold. how they know this is that they weighed the dentisity of the crown.
How can to tell if gold if fake?
Put it in warm water, after a while, if its colour disappears it's fake, if not it's real. This is because gold does not react with water. but golden coating reacts with water. You could always use the same method that Archimedes used. He measured the displacement of the water when the crown was submerged as well as the weight to determine the density of the crown. He then compared the crown's density to a pure gold reference density. If the densities matched, then they were both of the same purity of gold. Note: Gold's density is 19.3 g/cm**3 edit: Density can be measured (as mentioned above). Melting temperature is also a good indicator of purity (if you're willing to part with the gold's form).
How do you tell the difference between real gold and fake gold?
Fake gold, or "fools gold" has a foul sulfur odor while real gold does not. Usually, you can rub the gold and sniff it to determine if it is real or fake.
Can you pass fake gold as real gold?
no because the real gold will mark with a small bite, the fake gold wont

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.
