Since the density of gold is higher than that of iron pyrite, the gold nugget will have a smaller volume than the iron pyrite nugget. This is because for two materials with the same mass, the denser one will occupy less space.
Agreed with your correspodent 'Answer Bot'. However, do not be 'fooled' by iron pyrites'. It is known as 'Fool's Gold' , because its coloiur is very similar to Gold. However, Gold has a rounded form , whereas Iron Pyrites has a more angular form .
The volume of the gold nugget can be calculated by finding the difference in volume before and after adding the nugget. The volume of the gold nugget is 225 mL (final volume) - 85 mL (initial volume) = 140 mL.
The volume of the gold nugget can be calculated by subtracting the final volume (225 ml) from the initial volume (80 ml) of water in the graduated cylinder. Therefore, the volume of the gold nugget is 145 ml.
The volume of the nugget of gold is 15 ml because the increase in volume from 250 ml to 265 ml is the volume displaced by the nugget of gold.
The density of pyrite is about 5 g/cm³. To find the mass of the pyrite, you can use the formula: mass = density x volume. Therefore, in this case, the mass of the pyrite would be 50 grams.
The nugget of gold has a volume of 2.6 cm3, and the nugget of pyrite has a volume of 10 cm3.
To find the volume of each nugget, we can use the formula ( \text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}} ). For gold, the volume would be ( \frac{50 , \text{g}}{19.3 , \text{g/cm}^3} \approx 2.59 , \text{cm}^3 ), while for iron pyrite, the volume would be ( \frac{50 , \text{g}}{5.0 , \text{g/cm}^3} = 10 , \text{cm}^3 ). Therefore, the volume of the nugget of iron pyrite is significantly larger than that of the gold nugget.

Submerge it in water and determine the volume (in cubic centimeters) that it displaces. That will be the volume of the nugget.

density=g/cm3 The density of Gold is 19.3g/cm3 The density of Fool's Gold (pyrite) is 5g/cm3 The question is slightly ambiguous as first written so two calculations are given: # 100/15= 6.666g/cm3 So this nugget is possibly pyrite and not gold. 100/5= 20g/cm3 So this nugget is possibly gold.

Iron pyrite (FeS2) has a density of 4.8 to 5.0 grams per cm3. A piece of volume 40 cm3 would, therefore have a mass of volume*density = 192 to 200 grams.
Agreed with your correspondent(AnswerBot)!!! However, it must be a huge measuring cylinder if it has a volume of 255 L . I think you mean 255 mL. 255 L is 255 litres = 255,000 mL , which is a quarter of a cubic metre. Please ensure that you correctly insert the units.
