No. Molten rock is heavier than water.
No, titanium does not float on lava. Lava is molten rock, which is much denser than titanium. When titanium comes in contact with lava, it would sink or be engulfed by the molten rock due to the difference in density.
The continental plates float on asthenosphere, molten rock (lava).
You can determine if a rock can float by comparing its density to the density of water. If the rock is denser than water, it will sink. If the rock is less dense than water, it will float. This can be tested by placing the rock in a container filled with water and observing its behavior.
Virtually all types of rock will sink in water. The only rock that can float on water is pumice.
Pumice, a volcanic rock that can float.
The earth's tectonic plates are said to "float" on layers of magma, which is molten, or very hot liquid rock deep under the surface of theearth.
no
Tectonic plates float on an underlying molten layer.
The ocean of molten rock beneath Earth's crust is called the mantle. The movement of the molten rock in the mantle is responsible for driving the motion of tectonic plates, which are like giant puzzle pieces that make up Earth's surface.
the heat from inside the earth heats the water so when it comes up it is hot Iceland is basically on a humongous plume of molten rock. This really hot molten rock heats the water so that's why the water is hot! :)
Pumice.
Any with a density less than the fluid into which it is placed. Pumice is a volcanic rock that will sometimes float on water.pumice
