Gold is heavier on the periodic table. In equal proportions, gold will weigh heavier than silver.

Depends upon the specimen.
If you are meaning a single atom, gold is heavier than silver. The atomic weight of gold is about 197 amu. Silver is under 108.
If you mean the density, then gold is about 19.3 g/mL while silver is about 10.5 g/mL.
However a 10 grams bar of pure silver on the surface on the earth would weigh more than a 5 gram gold disk.

Pure gold is heavier than pure silver provided that they have the same number of atoms in them.

Gold is about twice as dense as silver, so a volume of pure gold will weigh about twice as much as pure silver. 14 carat gold and silver weigh about the same.

Gold has a greater atomic number than silver and thus also has a greater atomic weight .

depends on the quatity , gold tends to be heavier becuase the relaive atomic mass is greater than silvers releative atomic mass

Gold is heavier, we know this because it's atomic weight is 196.9, and silver's atomic weight is only 107.8.
