Gold is heavier than copper primarily due to its higher density. Density is defined as mass per unit volume, and gold has a higher Atomic Mass and closely packed atomic structure compared to copper. This results in gold being more compact and thus heavier for the same volume. Consequently, when comparing equal volumes of gold and copper, gold will weigh more.
