If you have a decent kitchen scale, place the gold on it. Otherwise, jewelers and appraisers often can do it for you for free. Call around to different jewelry or appraisal stores to see which ones offer this service. Make sure you get the weight in grams rather than ounces. You need the weight in grams to use in a calculation later. If the weight is in ounces, you won't get an accurate result. Choose a cylinder that is big enough to hold the gold. It needs to have measurement markings in milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cc). If you don't have a regular graduated cylinder, you could try using a kitchen measuring cup. Vials with frequent millimeter markings on the side are useful for getting a more accurate measurement during the test. The amount of water you use doesn't matter that much as long as you leave plenty of space for the gold. If you fill the vial to the top, dropping the gold into it causes the water to spill. Look at the markings on the cylinder, then record the water level. This measurement is very important for the test, so write it down. Make sure you have the vial on a flat, level surface in order to get as accurate a reading as possible. Keep in mind that it doesn't matter if your vial is marked in milliliters or cubic centimeters. They are the same measurement, so either unit can be used in the test. Gently lower the gold into the cylinder to avoid losing any of the water. Let go of it right above the water to prevent splashing or getting your fingers wet. Then, read the markings again to get the second measurement. Write the second measurement down on a piece of paper. Note that this is the second measurement, not the initial one. Perform a simple calculation to figure out how much water the gold displaced. Subtract the initial measurement, the smaller number, from the final measurement. This gives you an answer in milliliters or cubic centimeters, depending on what measurement your vial lists. For example, if you started with 17mL (0.57floz) of water that rose to 18mL (0.61floz), that leaves a 1mL (0.034floz) difference. The density of the gold equals its mass divided by its volume. After calculating the density, compare the result to the standard density of gold, which is 19.3 g/mL. If your number is way off, chances are you have a fake. Keep in mind, though, that some combinations of metals in fake gold can have a density similar to real gold. For instance, you have a gold item that weighs 38g (1.3oz) and displaces 2mL (0.068floz) of water. Divide 38 by 2 to get 19 g/mL, which is very close to the density of gold. The standard density differs a little depending on the type of gold you have. For 14k yellow gold, it's about 12.9 to 13.6 g/mL. For 14K white gold, it's around 14 g/mL. A piece of 18K yellow gold has an average density from 15.2 to 15.9 g/mL. A piece of 18K white gold has a density from 14.7 to 16.9 g/mL. Any 22K piece of gold has a density around 17.7 to 17.8 g/mL.

One-sentence summary -- Weigh your piece of gold on a scale. Fill a graduated cylinder halfway full with water. Read the starting water level in the cylinder. Drop the gold into the vial and record the new water level. Subtract the measurements to find the difference in the water level. Divide the gold's weight by the difference in the water level.

Throwing your foam topper into the garbage can be detrimental to the environment. Instead, find local recycling centers and ask them to point you in the direction of recycling programs and dropoff sites for memory foam. Don't set it out with your standard recyclables, as it needs to be processed in a specialized facility. Visit Home for Foam for dropoff and pick-up locations: https://www.homeforfoam.com/foam-101/foam-recycling-centers. Some memory foam manufacturers will take your old foam bedding through buy-back or disposal agreements. Check your warranty and look for information on these kinds of transactions. Visit your manufacturer's website and check their contact page for information on getting in touch with them. If you purchased your topper from a local store, call and ask if they can recycle if for you. Many public works departments and local health boards have recycling programs that specifically subsidize mattress recycling. Although created for mattress recycling, most of them also take related materials, including foam, steel, and wood, which are separated and used in new products. Take a look at Bye Bye Mattress to find a program near you: https://byebyemattress.com/find-a-facility/.

You may jump to conclusions instead of getting all of the information first. Instead of jumping to conclusions or making a snap judgment, wait until you have all of the information. And while you're at it, avoid planning your next move if you're in an argument. Instead, ask questions and seek to understand the full situation before assigning a judgment or emotionally investing yourself. If you're upset that your partner is late, don't jump to conclusions as to why he may be late. Instead, gently ask what happened without coming across as judgmental or accusing. If someone is emotionally reactive in an argument, don't meet this reactivity with more reactivity. Instead, practice active listening skills. Reacting to another person's strong emotions will likely escalate the situation and will not contribute to a solution. For example, if someone is angry and is attacking you, don't go straight to the defense. Instead, hear the person out, make an effort to understand her thoughts and feelings, ask questions, and calmly reply. By blaming, you automatically put someone on the defensive, which can lead to conflict. The other person may also be more likely to blame you back for something. Claim your emotions as a way of not blaming others and taking responsibility for your emotions. By claiming your emotions as your own, you gain control of them. Instead of blaming someone by saying, "You didn't show up and you blew me off again; you're such a jerk," say, "I felt really hurt and abandoned that you didn't show this evening, and I felt confused that you didn't let me know you weren't coming."
