Pure gold has a specific density like all other substances.If an another substance was mixed with gold the density may fluctuate.Refer to Archimedes
The metal with the lower density occupies more volume, so it would displace more water. Density of silver = 10.49 g/cm-3 , density of gold = 19.3 g/cm-3, Silver's displacement is greater.
One L of gold would have a mass approximately 19 times that of 1 L of water. This is because the density of gold is ~19 x that of water.
Gold and Silver at their purest have a very specific measurement of density. When measuring the density of a piece of metal if it is more or less than the pure level of density then it is not pure.
Use the definition of density, as mass / volume. 2g / 10ml = 0.2g/ml (That would float, by the way. You would need to push it down to get an accurate reading. And, of course, compensate for the volume of the pushing device.)
If you use the definition of "density" as mass/volume, then yes. That's the standard definition.However, it is also possible to define density as weight/volume.
density would be the best identification test that will help you decide whether the nuggets are gold since the specific gravity of gold is 19. so gold has a density of 19g/cm cube
Sure, the density of pure gold would be greater than most other metallics, the density of gold is 19.32 g/mL, so anything less than that, and the bar would not be pure.
Density and fracture would help you decide whether the nuggets gold
Pure gold has a specific density like all other substances.If an another substance was mixed with gold the density may fluctuate.Refer to Archimedes
On Earth - bringing the gold from the Moon back to Earth would cost more than the gold is worth.Note that under the given assumptions, you would get more gold on the Moon for the same price.
relative density is related to the density of water. i.e. a relative density of 19.3 means that it has a density 19.3 times the density of water. The density of water is 1g/ml therefore the density of gold is 19.3g/ml
you could do a density test. If you measure the mass of the object and divide it by the volume (displacement test would be easiest) then you have calculated the density. the density of gold is 19.3 so if you get something close to this then it is gold.
None they would have the same..
The density of gold, which is rather soft and dense, is 19.3g/cm^3.
One way of determining if a sample of gold is pure, would be to compare the density with that of real gold.
