Here's why:
* Molar Mass: The molar mass of an element is the mass of one mole of its atoms. It's expressed in grams per mole (g/mol).
* Gold (Au): The molar mass of gold is approximately 197 g/mol.
* Potassium (K): The molar mass of potassium is approximately 39 g/mol.
Since gold has a much larger molar mass than potassium, a mole of gold atoms will weigh significantly more than a mole of potassium atoms.
