A cubic foot of gold weighs 1200 pounds
A cubic foot of platinum weighs 1330 pounds
A cubic foot of silver weighs 652 pounds
A cubic foot of Mercury weighs 800 pounds
A cubic foot of iron weighs 450 pounds
A cubic foot of lead weighs 700 pounds
As 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/cm³
2. Platinum - 21,40 gr/cm³
3. Plutonium - 19,80 gr/cm³
4. Tungsten - 19,60 gr/cm³
5. Gold - 19,32 gr/cm³
................................
9. Lead - 11,34 gr/cm³ (Just to get the perspective)
Gold
Gold is heavier than diamond. Diamonds have a specific gravity of 3.51. Gold has a specific gravity of 19.32.
The atomic mass of Carbon is 12.0107 The atomic mass of Gold is 196.96657 So an atom of Gold is about 16 times heavier than an atom of Carbon.
No. Mercury is a liquid metal and is more dense.
Gold is a metal. Also classified as a "Non-Ferrous metal".
Gold is a metal. But when compared to steel yes gold is heavier.
Gold is heavier,
Plutonium is heavier than gold. It is a dense, radioactive metal that is commonly used in nuclear reactors and weapons.
Gold
Yes, gold is much denser and very much more conductive than materials that we otherwise use. Thus making excellent heat transfers and also being very precious and rare in its pure state. Uranium is much denser than gold.
Osmium and iridium are both heavier than gold.
Gold is heavier than a diamond if they are both the same size.
Cotton is a very lightweight plant, and fabric. Metal is much heavier than cotton.
because gold has more mass than water and therefore, gravity pushes harder on gold than water.
I list them in order of heaviest to lightest:Gold, Silver, Iron, Titanium. Gold has no ore and ores are always less dense than the metal.
No. Gold is heavier than lead.
Iron is heavier because iron is a metal and metals are heavier but silica is not a metal so silica is lighter than iron.
