Yes. Platinum is more dense than gold. Elemental platinum is 21.45 g/mL vs 19.3 g/mL (in standard conditions).
Note that the difference is even more pronounced in jewelry because gold and platinum are mixed with other metals to form alloys: 950 (95%) platinum is typically around 20.1 g/mL, while jewelers' gold ranges from 10.9 to 17.8 g/mL depending on caret.
So while the difference in densities for elemental gold and platinum is rather small, it is fairly easy to discern the different density of gold and platinum jewelry.
Platinum is more dense than gold. Platinum has a density of around 21.45 grams per cubic centimeter, while gold has a density of approximately 19.32 grams per cubic centimeter.
Because gold is easier to find. On top of that there are more industrial uses for platinum than for gold.
Platinum is more expensive than gold. It is a naturally white metal, is more durable and dense and quite rare, it does not require rhodium plating to keep it white. When a piece of jewelry is being made, in the case of platinum 85% – 95% is used.
No, it is not the same, as platinum and white gold are two very different metals. However, the biggest difference would be the price as platinum is more expensive than white gold. Platinum is a naturally white metal, is more durable and dense whereas white gold is not. White gold has a high maintenance cost also as it requires rhodium plating to keep it white. When it comes down to buying a platinum or white gold wedding ring, it all depends on your budget and what you can afford.

platinum
FALSE. There are probably 15 elements more dense than mercury. A few examples would be Osmium, Platinum, and Gold, just to name a few.
platinum is more unique
Platinum is usually 1/3 heavier than 18 karat gold and also is more expensive than gold.
Platinum is a very unique metal that has characteristics to distinguish it from white gold. Platinum is a very dense metal, meaning that it is very heavy. If you compare a gold ring to a platinum ring, you'll feel a significant weight difference, and usually, platinum is about 60% heavier than a 14k gold ring.

Yes, platinum is rarer than gold.
Gold. It is more expensive according to how much mass it has inside of it.
