Density means, for a given amount of area, how closely(Dense) the molecules of a particular element are packed-up with a binding energy(The binding energy of air is very low). Consider, we pour a bucket of cold water into a bucket of hot water. The cold water settles down & the hot water comes up.You can notice this while you are taking bath. This means the temperature (Hot or Cold)is affecting the binding energy of the molecules of water thus making it low in density.

What has a effect on water density?

Density of a liquid is indirectly proportional to the temperature. When the temperature raises, the density of the liquid decreases. Therefor the temperature has an effect on water density.


What is the effect of temp on density?

An increase in temperature results in a decrease in density.


Does the temperature effect air density?

Of course it does.


What are two things that effect density?

temperature and pressure


What two things effect the density of water?

Temperature and Salinity.


What has no effect on density?

time. temperature. candela. electric current.


What is the effect on the speed of light when temperatures rise in the medium?

When temperature rises, the density of the medium changes. Speed of light through a medium is inversely proportional to the density of medium. So when the temperature increases, the density decreases and the speed of light in that medium increases. Note that this is the indirect effect of temperature. If light is travelling through vaccuum , then the temperature will have no effect on the speed of light.


Does the temperature of the Dead Sea affect it's saltiness?

no, but it does effect the density


How does density effect bouyancy?

Buoyancy is the ability to float, so if the density is high, it'll hold up something. (see? FLOATING. BUOYANCY.)


A medium can effect speed of sound by changes in what?

When you change density and temperature you effect the way sound travels through a medium.


What is the effect of lowering or increasing the temperature of water on its density?

In 3,98°C(The heaviest) the density is 1000 kg/m3 = 1,000 kg/l = 1,000 g/cm3. When going to a higher or lower temperature than 3,98°C, the density decreases.


What effect does air density have on the absorption and radiation of energy?

An increase in air density will mean a decrease in the absorption and radiation of energy. An increase of air density causes temperature and pressure to rise.
