There are two reasons why gold is more dense than water. First, the individual atoms of gold are tremendously heavier than the two types of atoms (hydrogen and oxygen) which make up the water molecule. Secondly, the metallic bond that makes gold into a solid substance is stronger than the bonds that hold water together as a liquid, and a stronger bond holds atoms together more closely, and hence more densely.
The density of gold is rho = 19,320 kg/m³ and for water is rho = 1,000 kg/m³. The density of gold is rho = 19.320 g/cm³ and for water is rho = 1 g/cm³.
Gold has a higher density than water, that is why it sinks.
golds density is 19.3 (g/cm); but water has a density of 1 g/mc3
Gold sinks when you place it in water. So, gold has a higher density than water.
the wood has a density lower than water, the density of the gold is greater than water.
Density is usually measured in grams by cubic centimetres, g/cm2. For Gold, the density is around 19.3g/cm2. For silver the density is around 10.5g/cm2.
Gold is denser than water. That is how Archimedes supposedly figured out that the crown was tampered with.

put them both in a tub of water and if one floats its not as dense as the other if it sinks its more dense
In the Mediterranean Sea the cool dense water sinks under less dense water which is called density current.
BAA. Yes, the Earth's density (compared to water) is around 5.5 times more dense than water.
less dense than the liquid they are in. Water is more dense than air, therefore water is below air. This explains why the oceans aren't in the sky.
no beacause a rubber duck floats and if an object floats in water, is is less dense than the water if it sinks it is more dense
No, not in water. Gold is very dense. However, if you found a liquid that is more dense than gold, at a temperature that would not melt the gold, then the gold would indeed float in it.
No, gold is much more dense that aluminum.
Between lead, mercury, gold, and water, mercury is more dense than all the rest. It is type of metal which is most commonly seen and used in its liquid format.
no, oil is not more dense than water
Water is 784 times more dense than water.
zinc is more dense than water
Anything that sinks in water is more dense than water.
more dense
a magnet is more dense then water
Lead is more dense than water.
more dense
Ice is less dense than water
