A kilogram is a measure of mass therefore a kilogram of lead and a kilogram of feathers have the same mass: one kilogram. They would, however, have different volumes and densities.

Which has greater mass 1 L of feathers or 1 L of lead?
One litre of feathers would have far less mass than one litre of lead.
Which has greater weight a kilogram of butter of kilogram of lead what is greater density which has greater volume?
They both weigh the same: 1kg = 1kg. The kg of butter has a greater volume and the kg of lead has a higher density.
How many cc are in a kilogram?
That depends what substance you have a kilogram of.A kilogram of air fills many many cc.A kilogram of water fills only 1,000 cc (1 liter).A kilogram if ice fills a few more cc than a kilogram of water does.A kilogram of lead, gold, or rock fills only a small number of cc.
How big is 10 pounds of lead?
A cubic inch of lead is about 0.4 pounds. So 10 pounds would be about 25 cubic inches which would make a ball about 3.6 inches in diameter. That is slightly larger than a softball.
What is heavier a kilo of lead or kilo of flour or kilo of feathers?
it is obviously the same weight because it say KILO for both!
Would a kilogram of feathers be heavier than a kilogram of lead?
No, both weigh a kilogram
Why would 1 kilogram of lead be less awkward to carry around than 1 kilogram of feathers?
Because of its' mass density. The lead would be much smaller in size.
What is heavier a kilo of lead of wood or of feathers?
They all would weigh the same amount, 1 Kilogram.
Does a kilogram of lead weigh as much as 100 g of feathers?
Yes
Which has more mass 12 g feather of 12 g lead?
Both the feathers and the lead have a mass of 12 g. The trick in the question is that feathers are less dense and have a larger surface area in proportion to their mass, so they would fall a lot slower and be a lot larger than the same mass of lead.
Which weighs more a kilogram of lead or feathers?
If you had a perfect scale, that could read to, say, the millionth decimal place, and you used it for each, then the lead would weigh more, because its center would be closer to the center of the earth.
Is lifting 40 lbs of feathers easier than lifting 40 lbs of lead?
Not easier because of the quantity or mass of feathers are larger than 40 lbs of lead
Would a kilogram of butter weigh more or a kilogram of lead?
Both would weigh 1 Kilogram with a difference of volume.
Which one has more volume a pound of feathers or lead?
The feathers "take up more room" than the lead. It would be hard to compress the feathers to make them as dense as lead. The feathers have more volume.
Why does a kilogram of lead have a bigger density than a kilogram of feathers?
The density of a material is defined as its mass per unit volume. A given volume of lead has more mass than a given volume of feathers. In common usage mass often refers to weight, but that is not a very exact usage of it. For this question it may be useful however to think of a given weight of lead per volume and a given weight of feathers.If you have a kg of lead, that is a small piece, a kg of feathers is a large amount.So for a given volume, say a cubic centimeter, the weight of lead is much more than the weight of feathers.
Which is greater a kilogram of butter or a kilogram of lead?
Their masses are the same, so they have the same weigh whenever they're both on the same planet. A kilogram is a kilogram, no matter what form it takes. 1 kilogram is the exact same measure. Its like asking which is longer, a centimeter of chalk or a centimeter of candy. It's also the same as asking: What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of lead ?
Why does a kilogram of bricks take up a much smaller space than a kilogram of feathers?
Sand is denser than feathers. Since a given volume of a denser material has more mass than the same volume of a less dense material, when you make the masses the same, the volumes must vary.
