2- The density of gold is 19.31 g/cm3, and the density of platinum is 21.43 g/cm3. If equal masses of gold and platinum are transferred to equal volumes of water in separate graduated cylinders, which graduated cylinder would have the greatest volume change? Explain or show with a sample calculation.
