No.

Plasma is a word used in two main ways: one kind of plasma is part of your blood (which has nothing to do with gold, specially)

The other kind is a word used in the sciences of physics and chemistry.

If you heat something so hot that it not only melts, not only boils into a gas (or vapour) but also loses some of the electrons around its atoms, so that you get a mix of atoms missing some electrons plus the missing electrons, then that is what you call a plasma. There are other ways of getting about the same result, for example, you can use a very strong electric field to tear the electrons off the atoms, but usually plasmas are created by heating.

One example of a plasma is the gas in a fluorescent tube. Another is the solar wind, the plasma that the sun gives off and that goes blowing past us into outer space.

Plasmas are important for many reasons, some useful (like the plasmas in fluorescent tubes) and some harmful if they cannot be safely controlled.

If you melt gold it is not even nearly plasma yet.

Even if you boil gold it is not yet a plasma, even though you have to heat it to 2600 degrees centigrade to boil it, which is far hotter that what you need to melt it.

Does melted gold weigh more or less then solid gold?

Melted gold weighs the same as solid gold of the same mass, as weight is dependent on the amount of material present. However, when gold is melted, its volume decreases due to the loss of air pockets and impurities, leading to a higher density and smaller volume.

Will solid gold float in melted gold?

No, solid gold will sink in melted gold because the melted gold has a higher density compared to solid gold. Density is the measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume, with denser objects sinking in less dense substances.
