How does the density of a body and that of a liquid determine that whether the body will float or sink into that liquid?
If the density of the solid body is greater than the density of the liquid the bodywill sink. If the density of the liquid is greater than the density of the solid thebody will float.If the solid and the liquid have the same density, the solid body can be any whereinside the liquid and may move following currents if they exist in the liquid.Read more:How_does_the_density_of_a_body_and_that_of_a_liquid_determine_that_whether_the_body_will_float_or_sink_into_that_liquid
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid it is placed?
The solid cannot float in this liquid.
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid?
It sinks in the liquid. A steel bolt has a density greater that that of water. Drop it in water, it sinks.
The density of a liquid form of a material is always less than the density of the solid form of that same material?
Yes true, however this is not true of H2O or water. Water in solid form is actually less dense than its liquid form. That is why ice floats on water.
Why does a dense object float in the Dead Sea?
An object float in a liquid only when the density of the solid is lower than the density of the liquid.
How does the density of a liquid compare with the density of a solid?
That depends on the liquid and the solid. Liquid mercury has a very high density. Liquid gasoline has a very low density. At the melting point the density of a liquid and a solid are almost the same.

Is density of liquid have lower density of solid?
That depends on the liquid and the solid. Coal is a solid with a very low density. Mercury is a liquid with a very high density.
Is a solid and a liquid density?
no because solid is hard not a liquid
Is the density of gaseous substance likely to be larger or smaller then the density of liquid or solid substance at the same temperature and why?
Temperature in this instance will not affect density, but rather pressure. The density of the gas will be much smaller than the density of a liquid or solid of the same chemical because it is a gas. The formula for density is mass over volume, and a gas has no measurable mass, making the gas always less dense than the liquid and the solid.
What are 3 properties of a gas?
RarefiedAmorphous, taking shape of the containerLower Density than solid or liquid of the same compound.Higher energy state than solid or liquid of the same material.Either the same temperature as the corresponding solid or liquid if both are present, or a higher temperature if only the gas is present.
Solid or liquid argon have greater density?
Matter has more density when solid than when in a liquid state. The atoms are closer together.
What does density vary between solid liquid or gas?
as density is equal to mass per unit volume. for any substance, volume does not remain same in its three(solid, liquid and gas) state. so density vary when volume changes for different states of a substance
Does liquid have density?
Yes. The density of a liquid is usually close to that of a solid, and much higher than in a gas.
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid it is placed?
The solid cannot float in this liquid.
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid?
It sinks in the liquid. A steel bolt has a density greater that that of water. Drop it in water, it sinks.
How do you know whether something will float or sink?
It depends on the density of the solid, liquid, or gas. If the density is lower than water it will float. (Water's density is about 1). Also, if the volume of the solid, liquid, or gas is bigger than the mass then it will also float. It will sink if the solid, liquid, or gas's density is higher than water's density. :)
