A friend of yours went panning for gold last weekend and found a nugget that appears to be gold. With your newfound scientific prowess, you set out to determine if it is really gold. Your tests show that the nugget has a mass of 7.6 g. Immersing the nugget in water raised the volume from 7.22 mL to 8.06 mL. The density of gold is 19.32 g/cm3. What will you tell your friend?

Matter and Measurement

In the universe, there is matter, energy, and void space. The universe contains energy and void space. The definition of matter can be considered as something which possesses mass and consumes space. Chemistry is that branch of science which deals with the study of matter. Under chemistry, nature, composition, and the changes occurring to matter are discussed.
