This depends on the density of the shelving. There are Metal Wire Shelving Units that will be considerably lighter than wooden shelving, but there are also heavy duty shelving units that will be considerably lighter. Determine the maximum amount you want to store on the shelves then find a suitable shelving unit to use.
Iron is heavier because iron is a metal and metals are heavier but silica is not a metal so silica is lighter than iron.
Gold is heavier than silver. Gold has a higher density compared to silver, which means that for the same volume of metal, gold will weigh more than silver.
No. Most chairs are made of wood, which is organic and therefore not a mineral. Plastic chairs are made of materials that are both organic and synthetic, and therefore not minerals. The metal in metal chairs has bee made from mineral resources, but has been artificially processed and purified, and so would not qualify as a mineral.
Some chairs are made of metal and others are made of non-metals like wood or plastic. It depends on which chair you are looking at.
A heavy element is an element that based on the amount of metal that is in the element. Some can base the description of a heavier metal on the number of atoms but it is the amount of metal in the element.
It will depend on the size of the two pieces. A log is going to be heavier than a penny. Metal is denser than wood.
Oh, dude, like, metal is heavier than wood because of its density. Metal atoms are all packed in tight like a crowded elevator, while wood atoms are just chilling with some space between them. So yeah, metal wins the heavyweight championship in the periodic table, man.
it is more dense
Who wrote this question. The word is spelled incorrectly in this context. It should read, which is heavier wood or steel. Good grief
Yes, a wooden bat is heavier than a metal (aluminum) bat.
Wood is a natural material, while metal is a synthetic material. Wood is typically lighter and more flexible, while metal is heavier and stronger. Wood is easier to work with using hand tools, whereas metal often requires specialized equipment for shaping and forming.
It depends what kind of wood but mostly gold would weigh more.
Because they are made from metal - which is heavier then plastic, wood or glass.
Gold is a metal. But when compared to steel yes gold is heavier.
Cotton is a very lightweight plant, and fabric. Metal is much heavier than cotton.
Wood is wood. It is not metal, it is a living thing.
Wood boats are way heavier than fibreglass boat because wood boats are highly maneuverable and track well unlike fibreglass boat that has gained in popularity over wood and metal because of the relative simplicity of construction. So it means that the materials being used in contructing a fibreglass boat are lighter materials.
