Yes, 19.3 milliliters of water is greater than 1 milliliter of gold because water has a lower density than gold, so it occupies more volume for the same mass.
Grams measure mass and milliliters measure volume, so it depends on what substance is in the milliliters. -- 960 milliliters of air at sea level contain about 1.2 grams. -- 960 milliliters of water contain about 960 grams. -- 960 milliliters of gold contain about 18,340 grams. -- 960 milliliters of empty space contain zero grams of anything.
No, silver is a dense metal and will sink in water.
An ounce of gold would displace more water than an ounce of silver since gold is denser than silver. Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume, so denser materials displace more water when submerged.
If pure gold is mixed with water, the resulting color would be a clear or slightly yellowish hue, as gold is a yellow metal and would impart its color to the water.
Its volume expands when water turns to ice, so one gram of ice has a volume slightly larger than one millimeter of water. The specific gravity of ice at freezing is 0.9168, which means that frozen water has a volume about 9 percent higher than when it was a liquid.
