The list below gives the approximate densities of various metals:
A student buys a souvenir medallion advertised as being made of solid silver. When the student tests it in the laboratory, they find its mass is 160 g160\text{ g}160 g and its volume is 18 cm318\text{ cm}^318 cm3.
Describe how the volume of the medallion could be measured experimentally.
Use the figures given above to decide whether the medallion was really made of silver. Show your working. State clearly whether the answer is yes or no.
