Which has greater density 5g of gold or 5g diamond?
Any amount of gold is more dense than any amount of diamond. They don't even have to be the same amounts. Density is a characteristic of the substance. No matter whether you have a microscopic speck of it or a truckload of it, the density is the same.
What weighs more a ton of gold or a ton of sawdust?
1 tonne = 1000 kg 1 tonne of gold has the same mass as 1 tonne of sawdust. The pile of gold would be smaller as the density of gold is higher.
Why would you want to find volume of any object?
If you want to determine the density of an object, you would measure the mass and volume, then divide mass/volume to determine density. This can help determine the composition of the object. For example, if you find a rock that looks like a gold nugget. The density of gold is a known value, so one of the tests in determining if you are holding real gold would be to determine the density of your rock. This is one example. Another (maybe more 'real world' for you). Shipping and cargo companies measure the volume of packages as they go by on the conveyor belt, so that they can figure how many will fit in a particular truck.
How big is a block of gold if it weighs 30 kg?
Just divide this by the density of gold - about 19 kg/liter. The result will be in liters (equal to cubic decimeters).Just divide this by the density of gold - about 19 kg/liter.

Which is denser 1 gram of gold or 1 kilogram of copper?
The amount of matter has no bearing on its density since density is a measure of mass per unit volume. Gold is denser.
How could you use density to determined whether a bar of metal is pure gold?
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.
Silver has a density of 10.5 g cm cubed and gold has a density of 19.3 g cm cubed Which would have a greater mass 5 cm cubed of silver or 5 cm cubed of gold?
None they would have the same..
Which would displace more water ounce of silver and ounce of gold?
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.
Can gold float in a molten vat of lead?
No. Th density of lead is 11.36 g/cm3, the density of gold is 19.32 g/cm3. Objects only float in liquids with a density greater than their own.
If the relative density of gold is 19.3 what would be its density?
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
Would the density of a piece of gold be different depending on its size?
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
Which has a greater density a cubic meter of snow or cubic meter of wood or cubic meter of gold or cubic meter of feathers packed tightly?
Gold.
One object has the mass 1487 the second object has a mass of 878 g which object have the greater density?
it matters what the substance is. If 878g of gold vs. 1487 g of silver, the density of gold is still more
Which has greater density 5g of gold or 5g diamond?
Any amount of gold is more dense than any amount of diamond. They don't even have to be the same amounts. Density is a characteristic of the substance. No matter whether you have a microscopic speck of it or a truckload of it, the density is the same.
How do you found out if gold is fake?
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.
Which is heavier a marble or baseball?
Assuming you are referring to density, gold has a density that is greater than marble's by almost 7 times...
Which identification test would help you decide the gold's identity?
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
