Iron is heavier because iron is a metal and metals are heavier but silica is not a metal so silica is lighter than iron.
A bike gets heavier after rusting because rust is the result of iron reacting with oxygen in the air to form iron oxide. Iron oxide has a greater mass than iron alone, adding to the weight of the bike.
Cast iron is typically heavier than bronze. This is due to the different compositions of the two materials - cast iron is a ferrous metal alloy, while bronze is a copper alloy. The density and weight of cast iron are generally greater than that of bronze.

Yes, gabbro and basalt are silica-deficient igneous rocks that have high magnesium and iron content. Gabbro is a coarse-grained rock, while basalt is fine-grained due to differences in cooling rates. Both rocks form from the cooling of magma with low silica content.
Impurities commonly found in bauxite ore include iron oxide (rust), silica (sand and quartz), and various other minerals. These impurities must be removed during the refining process to produce high-purity alumina for aluminum production.
No, iron is heavier than silica. Iron has a density of about 7.87 g/cm^3, whereas silica (silicon dioxide) has a density of about 2.65 g/cm^3.
Iron fillings are heavier.
No, atomically Iron is a heavier element
No, iron is heavier than wood.
Iron is the heavier element from which steel is primarily made.
Uranium (U) density: 19,05 g/cm3 Silica (SiO2) density: 2,634 g/cm3
Yes iron is very much heavier then plastic.
Elements heavier than iron are formed in super-nova explosions.
Yes, iron weights are typically heavier than rubber weights.
Aluminum has about 1/3 the density of iron, therefore a given volume of aluminum would weigh about 1/3 as much as the same amount of iron. So no, aluminum is not heavier than iron; far from it.
Lead is heavier, but iron is stronger.
Silica is part of the rock forming group of minerals. Silica has a molecular weight of 28.09 gm and is iron black and reddish in color.
