Being that it has twice the mass, wouldn't that mean everything would be heavier? |

If the planet has a solid or liquid surface, yes. It could also be a big gas planet. nt |

By my calc, it will have a gravity about 2.4 times Earth. |

You are correct. If this planet has the same density as Earth, there is 2.4g on the surface. |
