it actually gold because Lead has a density of about 11.3 grams per cc,

Gold has a density of about 19.3 grams per cc,

so for a given volume, gold is much heavier than lead.

Do lead and gold weigh the same?

GoldGold is almost twice as dense as lead! The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3 and the density of lead is only 11.34 g/cm3. For comparison the density of water is only 1 g/cm3.

Which has more mass an atom of gold or lead?

the lead atom is heavier, but it also bigger. therefore the density of lead is less than that of gold


How would you go about figuring out the density?

Density is the mass (weight) of a standard volume. So if you had one litre of air and one litre of lead the lead would have the higher density


Is gold less than water?

Gold sinks when you place it in water. So, gold has a higher density than water.

What method can be used to determine if gold earrings are real?

To tell if gold is real or fake, measure its density. The density of gold, 19.3 grams / cm3, is much higher than most other metals. Even lead has a density of only 11.4 g/cm3 -- platinum, iridium, osmium, and neptunium are the only metals that have a density over 20 g/cm3! (For comparison the density of water is only 1 g/cm3).


Why does a kilogram of lead occupy a much smaller volume than a kilogram of water?
