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.
Gold has many more protons and neutrons in the nucleus of each atom than iron does. So each gold atom weighs almost four times as much as each iron atom. The extra electrons in the gold atoms do make the atom a little bigger than an iron atom, but not a whole lot. So there are nearly as many gold atoms as iron atoms per volume, but each gold atom weighs a lot more. So gold ends up denser.
