Due to atmospheric pressure 1 Kg of Cotton is slightly heavier than 1 kg of Iron.
According to me cotton will be more lighter as air is a fluid and Archimedes principal applies on it. As cotton occuies more volume it will feel more upthrust and more loss in weight. Therefore it if lighter.

∙ 13y agoOne kilogram of iron and one kilogram of cotton have the same mass, so as long as
they're both on the same planet, they both have the same weight.
Look at it this way: I'll take two identical cardboard boxes. I'll put a kilogram of
iron into one of them and a kilogram of cotton into the other one, and I'll cover
and seal the boxes. Then I'll give you both boxes and a bathroom scale. I claim
that there's nothing you can do with the scale that can tell you which item is in
which box.

So, maybe a barrel of nails would equal a fraction of a bale of cotton, which weighs 500 pounds.

Both have the same weight but the volume may differ
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoBoth remains same since they are of same weight..
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoNeither. Since they both have a weight of 1kg one cannot be heavier than the other.
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoThe cotton will have a greater perceived weight; because it is bulkier it'll be harder to hold.
Wiki User
