The discovery of diamonds in Canada lead to the development of a robust mining industry that employs thousands of people and delivers significant revenues to Canada's tax coffers. Canada is the world's third largest producer of diamonds. You can read more about this economic impact, below.
The smaller the number, the heavier the gauge.
'Diamonds are forever' when in fact diamonds can be burned to CO2 gas in a furnace.
Yes, diamonds are formed from carbon.
i think it is because some diamonds people have fought and even died over. this isn't a very good definition ... Some diamonds are called blood diamonds, also known as conflict diamonds, because these diamonds were used to finance conflicts in central and western Africa, mostly. The last James Bond movie to star Pierce Brosnan as 007 [Die Another Day] features conflict diamonds prominently in the storyline.
Lead is much heavier than stainless steel.
No, gold is not heavier than lead. Lead is denser and heavier than gold.
No, lead is heavier than platinum. Lead has a higher density and atomic weight compared to platinum.
Gold is heavier than lead, but lighter than tungsten.
Yes, by about 8.2%. (rounded)
No, uranium is heavier than lead. Uranium has an atomic number of 92 and a higher atomic mass than lead, which has an atomic number of 82.
Iron is heavier than lead. The density of iron is around 7.86 g/cm³, while the density of lead is around 11.34 g/cm³, making lead less dense and thus lighter than iron.
Ice is not heavier than lead. Lead is much denser than ice, so it has a higher mass per unit volume. This means that lead will always be heavier than an equal volume of ice.
No, 100 aluminum atoms are not heavier than 100 lead atoms. Lead atoms are heavier than aluminum atoms because lead has a higher atomic mass than aluminum.
Lead is about 20% denser than iron, but its exact weight depends on the specific alloy or form of each metal. However, lead is generally heavier than iron.
If you had the same volume of each material, lead would be heavier (something on the order of eleven times heavier!) than the same volume of water. That's because lead is more dense than water.
No. Gold is heavier than lead.
