What happens to the density of most liquids as they are warmed?
Wiki User
∙ 12y ago
Basically, the heat causes the molecules to move (agitate) from the solid or liquid state.
The molecules take up a different arrangement on heating usually, but not always, a less compact form.

∙ 13y agodensity is mass/volume. that means, it is directly proportional to the mass and is inversely proportional to the volume.
as the temperature of a liquid increases, it goes in to the gaseous state. as we know, the volume of gas is much more when compared to the liquid state and this affects the density of the matter and hence, the density decreases.

Is true about density and states of matter for most substances?
The density of solid state of matter is higher than the density of liquids and the density of liquids is higher than the density of gases.
What is true about density and states of matter for most substances?
The density of solid state of matter is higher than the density of liquids and the density of liquids is higher than the density of gases.
Explain what will happen to the mass volume and density of a liquid as the temperature increases?
If density = mass/volume, and your volume increases while mass remains the same... Then the denominator increases which would decrease the density
Is one cc a measure of density?
1 cc's is a measurement of volume not density. In most cases liquids are measured in cc's. Many liquid medications are to be given in a certain amount of cc's.
When placed in water ice rises to the top of the liquids. Unlike most solids that sink when placed in their liquids forms ice floats because?
There are microscopic bubbles of air trapped in the ice - making it lighter than the water.

What happens to the density of most substances as they go from a gas to a liquid to a solid?
It increases.Added:Density of gases is much smaller than of liquids (up to 100 times or even more), and almost all of these liquids are in turn less dense than solids (water to ice is one of the exceptions).
What happens to frozen water that is different from most frozen liquids?
Frozen water expands, while other frozen liquids contract.
Does high pressure have high density?
If you are referring to a high pressure gas, then yes. The higher the pressure, the higher the density of the gas because the molecules pack closer together. The density of liquids can also be affected by pressure but to much less of an extent. For most purposes, liquids such as water are considered incompressible.
Do liquids have high or low density?
Denser than gases but (most often) less dense than solids.
What has a density less then water?
Anything that floats! Examples would be most woods, plastics, other liquids, and of course gases.

Will a liquid sink when its hotter than the liquid around it?
No, usually it will rise, since the density of most liquids will decrease as it is heated up.
What happens to liquid as they get warm?
The liquid turns into a solid. Er, not generally. As they get hotter, most liquids tend to evaporate!
