If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases does the density become more or less dense?
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases, the density of the air becomes more dense. Density is defined as mass divided by volume, so as the mass increases while the volume remains constant, the density increases.
Is liquid wax or solid wax more dense?
As in most substances, solid wax is more dense than liquid wax. Density, by definition, is mass divided by volume. If the volume is smaller, meaning less space occupied, than the density increases. In a solid, the temperature lowers, the molecules have less energy and are less active. Therefore, they take up less space, equalling a smaller volume. Small volume, more density.
Can a solid be more dense than a liquid?
Yes, a solid can be more dense than a liquid. Density is defined as mass per unit volume, so a solid with a higher mass per unit volume than a liquid will be more dense. An example is comparing ice (solid) to water (liquid), where ice is more dense than liquid water.
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases it becomes less?
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases, it becomes denser. This means that there are more air molecules present in that volume, making the air more compact and heavier.
Is water the only substance that increases in volume when cooled?
No, water is not the only substance that increase in volume when it changes state from liquid to solid. The element gallium is less dense as a solid than as a liquid, to name one. Generally speaking, solids are usually more dense than their liquid forms, but not always. and some other liquids also do
What is more dense?
a solid is more dense
What is the difference between the volume of metal solid to liquid?
If I understand the question correctly, the answer is that the solid is more dense than the liquid. In other words, the solid takes up less volume than the same mass of liquid.
Which have higher volume solid or liquid?
A solid. When you look at the compounds of a solid, its atoms are closely packed together, cause it be more dense and have more volume. Liquids atoms are loose and free floating to do as they please, causing liquid to be have a less dense volume. Hope this helps~ Off Spring.
What properties change when water freezes to ice?
When water freezes to ice, it becomes less dense, expands in volume, and forms a crystalline structure. Additionally, its molecules slow down and move into a more ordered arrangement, resulting in a solid state.
Why is solid silver more dense than liquid silver?
When a solid is melted it keeps its mass. It's the VOLUME that is slightly different. The density of most solids decreases slightly as temperature increases because solids expand when heated. As the temperature of the Solid Silver increases the volume increases slightly, even before the silver melts. This is due to the increased vibration of the silver atoms.I LIKE EGGS!!! XD
What is the difference between solids gas and liquids?
Solids are more dense than liquids, and liquids are more dense than gas. These are not the only states of matter. Actually, there are seven known states of matter. Including from most dense to least dense, BE-C (Bose- Einstein Condensate), Fermanic Condensate, Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma and Quark-Gluon Plasma. In a solid the molecules are move slower and are more tightly packed than, water which has more tightly packed molecules than a gas.
Is ice water more dense than liquid water?
Yes, ice water is less dense than liquid water. When water freezes into ice, its molecules form a crystalline structure that expands and increases the volume of the substance, resulting in lower density.
