That depends on how much of it you're trying to carry in the water.
Whatever size lump of iron you have, its weight will decrease by about 12.7%
when you get it into the water.
That means whatever amount of iron you can lift, you'd be able to manage
about 14.5% more if the iron was in water.

If 10kg iron block put in sea water what will be the weight of the iron block?
The weight of the iron block will be the same when placed in seawater, but it would experience a buoyant force due to the water displaced by the block. This buoyant force would partially counteract the weight of the block, making it feel lighter in water.
A piece of iron on top of a piece wood floating in a bathtub If the iron is removed from the wood what happens to the water level in the tub?
This is a factor of many things, for example, the weight of the iron and the wood, the dimensions of the container and how much water there is, but generally the water will rise because if the item is on top of the water displaces its weight in water.
Why does iron block displaces more water than a copper block of the same weight?
Iron is denser than copper, so a block of iron will displace more water than a block of copper of the same weight because the iron block takes up less space for the same mass. This means that the iron block will sink deeper into the water, displacing more water.
Why an iron weight of one kg sinks in water?
An iron weight sinks in water because its density is greater than that of water. The weight pushes water out of the way, displacing it and causing it to sink to the bottom. This is due to the principle of buoyancy - objects will sink in a fluid if they are denser than the fluid.
What happens to the weight of an iron nail after 3 days in salt water?
The weight of an iron nail may increase slightly after 3 days in salt water due to the absorption of some water and formation of rust on its surface, which adds weight. Additionally, the salt in the water can also contribute to the corrosion process.
Can you calculate the weight of 1200 gram of iron?
Why would you have to? it's stated - 1200 gram is a weight.
Why would an iron bar rust in the rain?
The iron would react with the oxygen in the water to make iron oxide, or rust.
Why does iron ship floats in water?
Iron ships float in water because of their hollow structure, which displaces enough water to generate a buoyant force greater than the weight of the ship. This buoyant force counteracts the force of gravity pulling the ship down, allowing it to float on the surface of the water.
Will a can of aluminum or iron float in water?
Both aluminum and iron have densities higher than that of water and ordinarily would sink; if the can was empty and thus (like a boat) able to displace more mass in water (by virtue of its volume) than its own weight, it could then float. However, if it was filled with water, its overall density considering both the metal and the container's content, would be higher than water, and it would sink.
Can iron be used to build a yacht?
Yes, iron can be used to build a yacht, but it is unadvised. Since iron rusts in water and the weight of it just isn't profitable.
Would iron fillings sink or float?
Iron fillings are denser than water, so they would sink when placed in water. Since water has a lower density than iron fillings, the fillings will displace the water and sink to the bottom.
How much weight is 600 shekels of iron?
600 shekels of iron would weigh approximately 7.2 kilograms.
