see if it floats, if it floats it is less dense.

How can you determine weather a solid substance is more dense or less dence than water?

You can determine whether a solid substance is more or less dense than water by comparing their densities. If the density of the substance is greater than the density of water (1 g/cm^3), then the substance is more dense. If the density of the substance is less than the density of water, then the substance is less dense.


How can you determine whether solid object is more dense or less dense than water?

If more dense, it will sink when put into water; if less dense it floats.


How can you determine whether a solid object is more dense then water?

Put it in water. If it floats, it's less dense. If it sinks, it's more dense.


How can you determine whether a solid object is more dense or less dense?

Gauge its buoyancy. Put it in the water. objects that are less dense will float while objects that are more dense sink.

What 2 factors determine the state of a substance?

The two factors that determine the state of a substance are temperature and pressure. These factors influence whether a substance exists as a solid, liquid, or gas.


What is an experiment that can determine whether a solid white substance is a lipid or a carbohydrate?

Rub the substance on a paper bag, if it leaves a grease stain, it is a Lipid.


Why is aluminium phosphate a dense and hard solid?

Being solid and dense are "physical" characterists. So, they depend on the INTERmolecular forces betweens the species of the substance(this one is a crystalline so it is composed of ions). Therefore, substance exists as dense solid because the intermolecular forces are strong.


What happens to a substance during changes between solid and I gas?

When a substance changes from a solid to a gas, called sublimation, it quickly becomes less dense.


What property of a substance indicates whether the substance is a liquid or a solid?

the melting point


Suggest one or two simple experiements to determine whether a solid white substance is a lipid or a carbohydrate What evidence would you need to support each hypothesis?

no !


What does the state of a substance depend on?

Typically pressure and temperature determine whether a substance is gas, liquid or solid. Some substances however are not easily forced into some of the states, and that is determined by by individual molecular qualities.
