Density= Mass/Volume

If we insert arbitrary figures ...

Block 1 Volume 40 cubic cms [arbitrary]

Block 1 Mass is less than Block 2 so 39 gms

Block 2 Volume is less than Block 1 so 39 cubic cms

Block 2 Mass 40 gms [arbitrary]

D1 = 39/40 = 0.975 grams/cubic cm

D2 = 40/39 = 1.0256 grams/cubic cm

It's clear therefore than inserting extra matter [mass] into the same volume or a lesser volume results in a higher density.

The same holds true where mass remains constant and volume is altered. Greater volume = Less Density and vice versa.

Why is gold heavier then wood?

Gold is heavier than wood because of its higher density. Gold has a much higher atomic weight and tighter packing of atoms compared to wood, which is made of cellulose fibers that are much less dense. This difference in density is what makes gold heavier than wood.
