To tell pyrite and gold apart, you can use the following two responses:
1. **The melting point could be used to determine which is gold and which is pyrite.** - Gold has a much lower melting point than pyrite, which can be a distinguishing factor.
2. **The crystals found in pyrite are different, intensive properties than the crystals found in gold.** - Pyrite typically forms in cubic crystals, while gold often appears in more irregular shapes. This difference in crystal structure is an important identifying characteristic.
The other two responses regarding them being the same thing and the extensive property of mass are not valid for distinguishing between the two.
