No, they do not contain fake gold but they might not be pure gold. The purity is measured can be measured by karats. 18 karat gold which is used for jewelry for example is 18 parts gold and 6 parts other metal such as nickel, copper etc....Such metal mixes are called alloys.

Suisse gold bars on the other hand which are bought as investments for example are 24 karat solid gold.

What are the size of gold bars?

This has three answers. First is the London Good Delivery Bar. It weighs roughly 400 troy ounces. The gold bars you see in the movies are meant to be this bar...but since one Good Delivery bar is worth well over a half-million dollars, movie supply houses sell fake gold bars. Second are the "bullion bars" you can buy from someone like Kitco. They come in various weights from one to 100 ounces. The third answer is for industrial bars, which are purchased not as an investment but because you make things out of the metal. Industrial bars have no standard size. A jewelry factory who uses 500 ounces of 10k gold and 300 ounces of 14k gold per day can have a refinery produce bars of those sizes and finenesses.
