a cubic centimetre of gold is heavier than a cubic centimetre of iron because gold is a denser substance than iron, i.e. it has more weight or mass per unit of volume.
gold it is thre times heavier!
8.268 grams per cubic centimetre! The total mass depends on the volume of course!
1 cubic foot of iron, at room temperature would weigh approx 2190 newtons.
7,874 kg
They both weigh the same, 1 kg
gold it is thre times heavier!
Iron weighs 0.284 pounds per cubic inch, while cast iron is about 0.25-0.27 pounds per cubic inch, due to how it is made and processed. So pure iron is heavier
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)
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
8.268 grams per cubic centimetre! The total mass depends on the volume of course!
Copper is more dense than iron, if that is what is being asked. The density of copper is about 8.94 grams per cubic centimeter. Iron had a density of about 7.874 grams per cubic centimeter.
Any amount of lead has the same density as one cubic centimeter of lead, but no amount of lead has the same density as any amount 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)
Copper has a density of 8.9 grams per cubic centimetre
1. If it looks like gold in bright sunlight, it will look shinny and like gold out of direct sunlight. Iron pyrite will not shine unless under direct sunlight.2. If you can put a knife blade on it and it bends, it is probably gold. Iron Pyrite will break.3. A pin will stick in gold, Iron Pryite will break.4. Some Iron Pyrite is magnetic.5. From what I have seen, if I am into Iron Pyrite, the pieces are usually consistant in size.
Platinum has the highest density among gold, platinum, iron, and lead. Platinum has a density of 21.45 grams per cubic centimeter, while gold has a density of 19.32 grams per cubic centimeter, iron has a density of 7.87 grams per cubic centimeter, and lead has a density of 11.34 grams per cubic centimeter.
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.
