Invisible and wet. And if it doesn't then it is a fake diamond.

A diamond is a pretty rock. There is only one kind of rock that will float in water, and I have seen it, but it was not a diamond.

It stays the same underwater. I know this because I've tested this.

If the solid is not completely submerged in the water Explain how this technique error affects the reported density of the solid?

You wouldn't get the right reading of volume of the object, so you're density calculation would be off.


Does platinum float or sink?

This depends what you put it in. If you put platinum in water it will sink. Water has a density of 1 g/mLwhereas platinum has a density of about 21 g/mL. Substances that are more dense than the liquid it is submerged in will sink.


What happens to the density of as it changes phase from a solid to a liquid to a gas?

It depends on what material you have taken under consideration example, in case of water , when ice changes to water its density increases and decreases water turns into steam . So one has to actually experiment himself/herself to know what actually happens to the material under consideration. it will lessen>AOA


Why is dichloromethane on the bottom if mixed in water?

because the bonds break up giving it a liquid form, this happens at room temperature


How can you use density to determine the purity of diamonds?

Density of a diamond a purity are not exactly related, unless you are determining the purity of industrial diamonds. We did find a chemistry question on Chegg that may reveal how: "In a purity check for industrial diamonds, a 11.25 carat (1 carat = 0.2000 g) diamond is heated to 74.21°C and immersed in 27.30 g of water in a constant-pressure calorimeter. The initial temperature of the water is 27.20°C. Calculate ?T of the water and of the diamond (cdiamond = 0.519 J/g·K). ?Twater _____ K ?Tdiamond ______ K"

The density of a submerged submarine is about the same as the density of?

The dnsity of a submerged submarine is the same as the density of the water if the density of the submarine was grater it will sink, if the density was less it would float.


What happens if iron is submerged in water?

Nothing. It just sinks.


What happens to the density of an iron bar when it is cooled?

1.) A sample of chlorine gas is compressed. 2.) A sample of water is frozen. 3.) A diamond is submerged in water. 4.) A lead weight is carried up a mountain. 5.) An Iron bar is cooled.


How do you find density of irregular shape?

Measure the displacement of water when the object is submerged in water. This gives the volume ; then weigh the object and divide the weight by the volume to get the density.

What property of an object determines the strength of buoyant force that will be exerted on it when submerged in water?

Density - esp relative to water.


What happens when a hot chocolate is partially submerged in cold water?

nothing


What happens to lettuce if it is submerged in ice cold water?

What is the density of thing if does not seettle in water?

The density of a solid not completely submerged in water is less than 1 gram per milliliter, the density of water. Only the volume of the submerged portion will displace the water and the portion on floating above the level of water cannot be measured.


A 6 kg piece of metal displaces 1 liter of water when submerged what is its density?

If the water is at standard temperature and pressure (25 degrees Celsius and one atmosphere), the water has density of 1 kilogram per liter. When submerged, the metal displaces its own volume of water. Therefore, the volume of the metal is 1 liter, and the density of the metal is 6 kg/liter.


Does a weighted air filled balloon with the same density as water float or sink?

Neither, it just stays submerged, provided its density stays the same as the water around.
