Is a destiny a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object?

no, strictly speaking mass is the amount of matter something contains and density = mass / volume say water = 1 gram per cubic centimetre and iron = 8 grams per cubic centimetre, then iron has 8 times the density of water

What metal is heavier than gold?

A cubic foot of gold weighs 1200 poundsA cubic foot of platinum weighs 1330 poundsA cubic foot of silver weighs 652 poundsA cubic foot of mercury weighs 800 poundsA cubic foot of iron weighs 450 poundsA cubic foot of lead weighs 700 poundsAs you can see only Platinum is heavier than Gold...(about 11% heavier if volume and purity are equal)Answer:There are four metals that are denser than gold:1. Osmium - 22,61 gr/cm³2. Platinum - 21,40 gr/cm³3. Plutonium - 19,80 gr/cm³4. Tungsten - 19,60 gr/cm³5. Gold - 19,32 gr/cm³................................9. Lead - 11,34 gr/cm³ (Just to get the perspective)


Are 3 moles of gold heavier than 10 moles of iron?

Let's see. 3 moles gold (197.0 grams/1 mole Au) = 591 grams of gold ----------------------------- 10 mole iron (55.85 grams/1 mole Fe) = 558.5 grams of iron ----------------------------- So, 3 moles of gold has more mass that 10 moles of iron. (heavier)


What atoms are heavier than iron?

There are many elements that are heavier than iron, including lead, gold, platinum, osmium, uranium, etc. Look at the periodic table of the elements.


Is iron heavier than gold?

Gold has many more protons and neutrons in the nucleus of each atom than iron does. So each gold atom weighs almost four times as much as each iron atom. The extra electrons in the gold atoms do make the atom a little bigger than an iron atom, but not a whole lot. So there are nearly as many gold atoms as iron atoms per volume, but each gold atom weighs a lot more. So gold ends up denser.
