Lead is more dense than feathers.
It doesn't matter how much you have of either one. A chip of lead is
more dense than a 10-mile convoy of trucks loaded with feathers.
A ton of feathers takes up significantly more volume than a ton of lead. This is because feathers are much less dense than lead; therefore, it requires a larger space to equal the same weight. While both weigh a ton, the physical properties of the materials result in feathers occupying a much greater volume.
Lead has a much greater density than feathers. Lead is a dense metal with a density of about 11.34 grams per cubic centimeter, while feathers are lightweight and have a density significantly lower than that of lead, typically around 0.0025 grams per cubic centimeter. Therefore, lead is far denser than feathers.
1 kg of lead and 1 kg of feathers have the same mass, but they differ significantly in volume. Lead is much denser than feathers, so 1 kg of lead occupies a much smaller volume compared to 1 kg of feathers. Therefore, 1 kg of feathers has a greater volume than 1 kg of lead.
A ton of feathers and a ton of bricks both weigh the same: one ton. The difference lies in their volume and density, with feathers taking up much more space than bricks due to their lighter density. Regardless of the material, a ton is a ton.
Neither, they both weigh a ton.
Something that weighs a ton is equal to other things that weigh a ton, therefore a ton of anything is equal to a ton of anything else. Even if it's feathers versus lead or cotton versus cement.
Lead is denser than feathers. Lead is a heavy metal with a high density, while feathers are lightweight and have a low density due to the air trapped within them.

There are 2000 pounds in a ton (US) or 2240 pounds in a ton (UK). It does not matter if it is lead, gold, paper, or feathers - a ton is a ton.
Yes, a ton is a measure of weight, so weighing a ton of feathers is the same as weighing a ton of any other substance. Feathers are very lightweight, so a ton of feathers would take up a lot of space but would not be as dense or heavy as a ton of a denser material like metal or rock.
think we're talking perception here... eg which is the heaviest - a ton of feathers or a ton of lead ??....

Lead is denser than feathers, therefore it would be smaller for the same weight. (feathers may be safer in the long run due to health effects ;) )

No, a ton of feathers and a ton of iron have the same weight because they both weigh a ton. However, the volume occupied by the ton of feathers would be significantly larger than the ton of iron due to the lower density of feathers.
They are both equal in weight.
Neither is heavier. You could have 100 bricks and a million feathers, they still weigh a ton. If both weigh a ton, it doesn't matter how many.
