Is America a sparsely or densely?
America is densely populated but due to advancement of technology it seems to be sparsely populated.
What is the Difference between densely populated and moderately populated areas?
Densely populated areas have more units per unit of area than moderately populated areas. Example: If 100 people in a store is densely populated; 75 in a store of the same size would be moderately populated.
What does densely populated mean?
densely populated basically means a larger than average number of people for a given unit of space. for example 100 people per 500 square metres
Which region of South America is the most densely populated?
nicaragua
Why does steam at 100C damage the skin than water at 100C?
I think it's the other way - 100°C liquid water causes more damage than 100°C gaseous water. Liquid water has molecules that are much more densely packed than gaseous water. Since temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy, the molecules in liquid form move just as fast as the molecules in gaseous form. So if you stick your finger in liquid water, much more molecules will hit you. Unless that extra enthalpy of vaporization causes a difference in speeds of the molecules, then that extra energy required to vaporize water will be transferred to you, and you will feel more pain.

Atmospheric pressure
Does sound travel faster through molecules that are far apart?
No. Sound waves travel fastest through mediums that have tighter or more densely packed molecules. Longitudinal waves need a conductor (i.e. molecule) to transmit sound. The closer the molecules are, the faster a sound wave is able to pass from one to another. Therefore, sound travels fastest through solid mediums (densely packed molecules), then liquids (less densely packed), then gases (least densely packed).
What happens when ice melts?
It turns into water and the molecules becomes less densely packed
What is a good heat conductor and why?
Metal is a perfect conductor of heat because the molecules are densely packed together so they can pass the heat quickly from one molecule to the other.

Why is singapore densely populated?
Because it is
How does water have 2 densities?
At 277,15K water achieves it's densest packing structure (coordinates to 6 other molecules) At the other temperatures the molecules aren't as densely packed.
Why is the thermal conductivity of a liquid larger than of a gas?
The molecules in a liquid are densely packed than in a gas. The shorter distance between the molecules allows the energy to transfer more efficiently between molecules, therefore allowing more heat to pass between them.
Why is bihar densely populated?
because of favorable climate
Why is terai region densely populated?
Why is terai region densely populated?Ans: Terai region is very densely populated because of:-Fertile landJob opportunitiesTransportation facilitiesGood production of crops etc.
What are molecules in the compression part of a sound wave?
Sound waves that are compressed are made of (air) molecules that are more densely concentrated - that is (ie) more molecules are packed into the space of the compressed wave than there are in the (same) space of the surrounding expanded waves.
Why is Bihar so densely populated?
because of favorable climate
