If a nugget of iron pyrite and a nugget of gold each have a mass of 50gwhat can you conclude about the volume of each nugget?

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.

Can two objects have the same mass but different weights?

YUPP... if you have a chicken nugget and a gold nugget, they can both have the same mass but the gold nugget is going to weigh one heck of a lot more. (my dad told me this so you betcha its right.)

What are the metric measurements of a gold nugget?

The answer depends on what characteristic of the gold nugget you wish to measure: its mass, weight, volume, density, temperature, electrical conductivity, etc.


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?

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 .


What is the density of a gold nugget that has a volume of 1.68 cm3 and a mass of 32.4 g?

With the information given, the density of your nugget is about 19.29 g/cc. The density of gold is given as about 19.3 g/cc, so your nugget fits the density requirements for it to be a gold nugget.


What is the density of a nugget of gold that has a mass of 965 g and a volume of 50 cm cubed?

The density of the gold nugget is 19.3 g/cm^3. This was calculated by dividing the mass (965 g) by the volume (50 cm^3).


What was the Holtermann gold nugget?

The Beyers and Holtermann nugget was the largest single piece of reef gold ever discovered in the world. The Beyers and Holtermann nugget was, strictly speaking, not a nugget, but what is called a matrix. Weighing in around 286 kilograms(about 630 pounds), it measured 150cm by 66cm, and was worth at least £12,000 at the time it was discovered, in October 1872. It was discovered by workers at the Star of Hope Gold Mining Co on Hawkins Hill, at the Hill End goldfields in New South Wales, Australia.
