It all depends on the size of the three items - a metal cube with volume 1 cm3 will weigh far less than one of the bolts they used to attach the space shuttle to the launch pad, correct? And it also depends on the metals in question - an iridium cube will weigh more than a magnesium nut made from the same volume of metal, because iridium is very heavy and magnesium is much lighter.

If you had these three objects all of the same metal and they all weighed the same, the cube would be smaller because a cube is a more compact shape than a nut or bolt.

Why is heat used to loosen a rusted nut on a bolt?

By heating the nut (and avoiding the bolt as much as possible) the metal expands, this increases the size of the hole in the middle, releasing pressure against the bolt and allowing you to turn the nut while hot. Wear heat proof gloves, eye protection and have extinguishing equipment and cold water to hand. The level of heat required is often described as "cherry red" and can cause some types of metal to permanently change their hardness... be very careful if you are working on safety critical things like brakes, replace all affected parts.

Are a nuts and bolts screws?

No. A nut and bolt are a matched set of fasteners. The bolt goes into or through the object it will secure, the nut is spun on to the bolt and snugged up tight to complete the fastening. A screw is a single fastener driven into (usually) wood - there is no nut used with it. There are also screws for use in metal, but they do not hold as securely as a nut and bolt.
