A substance that has a specific heat that is higher than liquid water and explain what it means?
that means more energy is needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of liquid from 1 Celsius than water.
Why is powdered chalk more like a liquid than a lump of chalk is?
because it consists of small particles that are similar to liquid. Even if we add water to a powdered chalk, it dissolves easily whereas a lump of chalk is harder to dissolve in water.
What is an example of a solid that Is less dense than a liquid?
Solid water, ice, is less dense than its liquid state. This is essential for aquatic life. Since ice is less dense than liquid water, it floats to the top of of the water. This insulates the water beneath the ice, allowing the water beneath the ice to remain liquid. For other substances, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state.
What are the density differences of water in the various states of matter in the water molecule?
Ice is less dense than liquid water, and liquid water is more dense than water in the gaseous state.
What promotes greater hardness in minerals?
Minerals are what cause water to be hard, tap water in east coast(NJ) is harder than tap water in CA. More minerals=harder water

What makes it harder to boil water on a stove?
Not turning the stove on would make it difficult.
If gasoline is poured carefully into liquid water will it sink or float explain?
Float. Gasoline is less dense than water.

Why is it harder to walk on water than on land?
Water is heavier than air and is harder to push against resulting in a harder work-out. For this reason atheletes and horses are sometimes trained in water, this gives them a harder work-out, making their performance on land that much easier.
Is liquid water more dense than ice water?
yes liquid water is more dense than ice water
Why is water nonrenewable?
Water is not nonrenewable. But it is getting harder and harder for the earth to clean it faster than humans pollute it.
Why do you seen to weight more in the air then in water?
Water is a liquid, not a gas like air, therefore the molecules are more concentrated in one area in water, and they support you more. It is the same reason it is harder to walk through water than air.
Does adding water to a liquid make it less dense?
That depends on the specific situation. Assuming the liquids just mix, and don't have some other reaction: * Adding water to a liquid that is denser than water will result in a liquid that is less dense (than the liquid that is not water). * Adding water to a liquid that is less dense than water will result in a liquid that is more dense.
What is waters characteristics because of hydrogen bonding?
Liquid water is denser than ice,Ice floats on top of liquid water.
Why are some stains more difficult to remove with water than others?
the harder you play the harder it is to get out
Is liquid water less dense than ice cubes?
No. Liquid water is more dense. This is why ice cubes float on liquid water.
