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.

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.

How much force is needed to displace 1500 pounds of water?

The force needed to displace 1500 pounds of water depends on whether you are trying to displace it vertically or horizontally. To displace 1500 pounds of water vertically (lifting it), you would need a force of 1500 pounds. If you are displacing it horizontally (pushing it), the force needed would depend on the resistance of the water and the method being used.

What would the final volume of water be in a graduated cylinder if 0.740 cm3 of silver pellets were added to 11.2 mL of water?

The volume occupied by water will not change, it will remain 11.2cm3 (1ml =1cm3). However, the final volume level will be 11.94cm3, since the silver pellets will displace the same volume of water that it occupies.
