Is sand a liquid or sand?
Sand is a solid, it comes from the three types of minerals: metamorphic, sedimentary, and igneous. When one of these rocks have contact with erosion or wind, over a period of time it will break down into sediments. The sediments can be sand, silt, clay, and other things. Soon the sediments will get compacted back together again and this part of the rock cycle starts over again.
Why does compacted sand have a greater density than loose sand poured into a container What does this mean?
In compacted sand the grains of sand are closer together, meaning there are more grains in a certain volume. This gives a higher value for density.
What do sandstone look like?
a lot of sand compacted into layers

However see below: Sand (dry) - 1.6 tonnes/m3 Sand (loose / poorly compacted) - 1.44 tonnes/m3 Sand (well compacted) - 1.680 tonnes/m3 Sand (wet) - 1.92 tonnes/m3 Sand (wet, packed) - 2.08 tonnes/m3
What sedimentary rocks forms when sand grains usually quzartz are compacted and cemented into rock?
Sandstone.
What rock is formed whe over time grains of sand may be compacted and cemented together?
Sandstone
What is the specific gravity of sand?
Light-colored sand is mostly quartz. The specific gravity of quartz is 2.65, but sand is porous. A good approximation is 1.6 for compacted sand where the interstitial volume is filled with air, rising to 1.9 when the sand is saturated with water.
