Does a solid block that sinks in a container of water has a lower density than water?

When a solid block of materials is cut in half what happens to the density?
The density does not change, as density is the amount of material in a given amount of space. But each piece has the same amount of space and material relative to each other.
Which will float on water a 1-kg block of wood or a 1-kg block of aluminum?
Wood will. A solid block of aluminum will sink. Things float when their density is less than water. There are some woods that sink.
How do you get a density of a block?
You will need the mass and volume of the block. To find mass, use an electronic balance. To find volume, use length x breadth x height. For irregular solid, use the water displacement method. The density is mass divided by volume.
Does a solid need a container to keep its shape?
liquid take shape of the container because the liquid particles stay together but they still more around. solid does not take the shape of the container, because solid is solid. The molecules cannot form the of the container because the molecules a very near each other.Only liquid can take the shape of the container. Thank you.

Is density of liquid have lower density of solid?
That depends on the liquid and the solid. Coal is a solid with a very low density. Mercury is a liquid with a very high density.
What would happen to a liquid or solid that has a lower density than water is placed in container of water?
Lower density materials float in higher density fluids. This does not occur if two miscible fluids are miscible (dissolve in each other). In that case the one fluid mixed with the other (e.g. alcohol and water)
Why do non soluble solid float nor sink in water?
A solid float on water if the density is lower than the density of water.
What is the definition of lower density when solid?
A definition of lower density doesn't exist. Solids with densities under 1,00 g/cm3have a very low density.
Why is ice solid weird?
You think probable to the density, lower than the density of liquid water.
Will silver float or sink in water?
no gold does not float in water because it has a density higher than 1 which is the density for water. Therefore, it sinks.rofl
Why does gas have a lower density than a solid?
A gas has a lower density than either a liquid or solid because its molecules are not as compressed as the other two states of matter. Gas has weaker intermolecular bonds than either a solid or liquid.
Which tools would you need to have to find the density of a solid rectangular block of wood?
on a balance
Why does the change of water from a liquid to a solid cause a container to break?
Water expands when it freezes and the container is less flexible at lower temperatures.
Why a solid does not fill the container completely?
possibly because the liquid didnt have enough volume to fill the container also because logicaly we dont really fill a container to the rim instead we get a container that is a little bigger.............just the way the human body works

A gas has a lower density than either a liquid or solid because its molecules are not as compressed as the other two states of matter. Gas has weaker intermolecular bonds than either a solid or liquid.
