Which is heavier a pound of feathers or a pound of books?

Who weighs more a pound of feathers or a pound of rock?
Each of them has the same weight . . . one pound.
What weighs more a pound of bread or a pound of air?
By the way you worded it, the answer is a pound of bread and here's why; since bread is a solid we know it is denser than air. You said a pound, which is the imperial measurment of mass and therefore you multiply the density of bread by mass to obtain the weight (the unit for weight is lb wt or pound weight. If you worded the question as "what weighs more a pound weight of bread or..." than your answer would be the same.
Which weighs more a pound of feather or a pound of bricks why?
A pound is an EXACT measure of weight. So if two things weigh a pound they both weigh the same. As feathers are light, it will take allot of them to make a pound as compared to bricks, (which are heavy) but when you have measured out a pound of each of them, the amounts you have measured are the same weight.
