What else can I help you with?
Does titanium float on lava?
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.
How can you determined if a rock can float in water?
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.
What are the tectonic plates floating?
The continental plates float on asthenosphere, molten rock (lava).
What type of rock cannot float on water?
Virtually all types of rock will sink in water. The only rock that can float on water is pumice.
What do you get if you cool molten magma around a few gas bubbles?
Pumice, a volcanic rock that can float.
What layer of the earth do plate tectonics float on?
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.
Does a shale rock float in water?
no
What plates float on a underlying molten layer?
Tectonic plates float on an underlying molten layer.
What is the ocean of molten rock on which the continents float called?
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.
What type of rock can float on water?
Pumice.
If Ice is to water than Rock is to?
Lava or Magma is rock in its molten state.
Why is the water at geysers and some springs hot?
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! :)
