Would a 1 kg bar of gold have the same density on Mars as it does on earth?

If you use the definition of "density" as mass/volume, then yes. That's the standard definition.However, it is also possible to define density as weight/volume.

What is the density of mars compared to earth?
Mars' atmosphere is almost entirely carbon dioxide gas (95%) with only a little nitrogen (3%)(as well as 1.5% argon) Compare with Earth: 77% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, 1% argon, 1% water vapour, 1% other gases.
Is there evidence of gold and platinum on mars?
yes. when the astranats where on mars they took samples of rocks and found small amounts of gold and some very tiny peices of platimun
Why would a chunk of gold weigh more on the moon then earth?
Special type of magnetivity only found on the moon and inside moon samples that is magentic towards the element gold.
Does the moon have gold in it?
The moon does indeed have a little gold on it.Gold was discovered on the moon along with water, silver and mercury.See the link below for an article on it.However, there is no point in mining it. The cost of building and running a mining facility on the moon plus the cost of transporting the gold back to Earth will cost billions. Whereas gold on Earth is worth just hundreds or thousands. The cost just isn't worth it, it would cost you more to mine and transport than you can sell it for.
What resources are there on Mars?
yesthere is water on the polar ice capsthere is solar power and possibly wind powerthere are volcanoes like Olympus Monsthere is dust and sandThat is ityesthere is water on the polar ice capsthere is solar power and possibly wind powerthere are volcanoes like Olympus Monsthere is dust and sandThat is it
Is there gold on the planet mars?
Most likely yes. All elements found on Earth can probably be found on Mars. However, trying to retrieve the gold from Mars would cost more than the gold is worth.

If the relative density of gold is 19.3 what would be its density?
relative density is related to the density of water. i.e. a relative density of 19.3 means that it has a density 19.3 times the density of water. The density of water is 1g/ml therefore the density of gold is 19.3g/ml
Would the density of a piece of gold be different depending on its size?
Pure gold has a specific density like all other substances.If an another substance was mixed with gold the density may fluctuate.Refer to Archimedes
How do you found out if gold is fake?
you could do a density test. If you measure the mass of the object and divide it by the volume (displacement test would be easiest) then you have calculated the density. the density of gold is 19.3 so if you get something close to this then it is gold.
Which identification test would help you decide the gold's identity?
density would be the best identification test that will help you decide whether the nuggets are gold since the specific gravity of gold is 19. so gold has a density of 19g/cm cube
How could you use density to determined whether a bar of metal is pure gold?
Sure, the density of pure gold would be greater than most other metallics, the density of gold is 19.32 g/mL, so anything less than that, and the bar would not be pure.
If the density of a small gold ring is 8 times the density of water what would be the density of a large gold bar 100 times the size of the ring?
The density of gold is 19.3g per cm3. The density of water is 1g per cm3. This doesn't change whether you have a tiny speck of gold or a giant lump the size of an iceberg. If a small gold ring has a density of only 8 times the density of water, then I'm sorry but you've been ripped off. It's not real gold, it is in fact iron.
What is the density fool gold?
The density of Fools Gold is 5.0
Would you expect the density of gold to be greater than or less than 1.0 g or mL?
The density of gold, which is rather soft and dense, is 19.3g/cm^3.
If gold were sold by weight (instead of mass) would you rather buy it on Earth or on the Moon?
On Earth - bringing the gold from the Moon back to Earth would cost more than the gold is worth.Note that under the given assumptions, you would get more gold on the Moon for the same price.
Which identifitcation tests would help you decide whether the nuggets are gold?
Density and fracture would help you decide whether the nuggets gold
