Each atom has its own properties, including Iron. One of the most important properties an atom can have is the atomic mass.
So how much does Iron weight... or how much mass does it have?
The answer is 55,847. However there is a lot of secret stuff about Iron that most people don't know
Let's check it?

Iron Overview
Iron Atomic Mass
Description
Malleable, ductile, silvery-white metal. Fourth most abundant element in the earth's crust (56,300 ppm). Ninth most abundant element in the universe.
Atomic Symbol
Fe (Iron)

Sources
Obtained from iron ores. Pure metal produced in blast furnaces by layering limestone, coke and iron ore and forcing hot gasses into the bottom. This heats the coke red hot and the iron is reduced from its oxides and liquified where it flows to the bottom
