Legend says that archimedes, in determining whether or not the king's crown was made of pure gold, measured its volume by the wa
ter displacement method. if the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3, and the crown's mass is 600 g, what volume would be necessary to prove that it is pure gold?
Mass=volume x density if we have mass and density we can calculate volume using the formula: volume=mass/density volume of the displaced water = 600g/19.3g/cm3 volume = 31.09cm3
A phase change from Gas to liquid means that it was cold outside and so the molecules went from being very free moving to forming bonds with one another due to the cold.
