That depends on the type of wood. Most woods, e.g. aspen (0.42 kg/metre cubed) would be more dense than bamboo (about 0.35 kg/metre cubed), but balsa wood has very low density, (0.16 kg/metre cubed).
This is not a sensible question. There are many types of wood, and many types of metal. It depends which ones you pick. Balsa wood has a very low density, lignum vitae is much higher. Most woods are less dense than water (so they float) but a few are denser. Most metals are more dense than water, but a few, such as sodium and potassium are less dense. Overall, I suppose most metals are denser than most woods, but potassium is less dense than some forms of eucalyptus wood.
There are many physical properties for a piece of wood. It is: A solid An insulator Less dense than water (usually)
Because centimeters cubed is a unit of volume, not weight. The two might take up the same amount of space, but iron is much more dense and as such weighs more.
An educated guess would be yes They used to build ships from it. But I suppose it all depends on how large the amount of wood is, if the wood is treated i.e with some sort of varnish to stop it absorbing water and the surface area of wood as well. Hope this helps as I was wondering myself for a while
yes, very.
An aspen is a kind of poplar tree of the genus Populus sect. Populus, or the wood of such a tree.
There hard wood protects them.
No pine is more dense then cedar.
Aspen is a poplar tree. They typically grow tall, and have white bark. There is also a city named Aspen, Colorado.
It depends on the kind of wood. Water is more dense than most wood, but there are some kinds of wood (typically called ironwood) that are more dense than water.
Less dense wood will burn fastest, such as balsa wood. In general, the faster a tree grows, the less dense the wood from that tree will be.
Wood in most cases

Fair. Splits well, burns easily, not a lot of heat. But when I lived in Colorado, you had a choice of Aspen or Fir/ Spruce- and Aspen was the better of the two. Heat output is about 60% of white oak.
Aspen is best, cedar and pine can make them sick!!
