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 if density of a solid substance is more than liquid it is placed?
The solid cannot float in this liquid.
How does waters relative densities as a solid and a liquid differ from that of most other substances?
Water has a lower density as a solid than it does as a liquid. In the vast majority of substances are denser as solids than as liquids.
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid?
It sinks in the liquid. A steel bolt has a density greater that that of water. Drop it in water, it sinks.
What happens to a substance during changing between a solid to a liquid?
When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid and vice versa, its density changes.
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.
How does the density of a liquid compare with the density of a solid?
That depends on the liquid and the solid. Liquid mercury has a very high density. Liquid gasoline has a very low density. At the melting point the density of a liquid and a solid are almost the same.
Is a solid and a liquid density?
no because solid is hard not a liquid
How does the density of a body and that of a liquid determine that whether the body will float or sink into that liquid?
If the density of the solid body is greater than the density of the liquid the bodywill sink. If the density of the liquid is greater than the density of the solid thebody will float.If the solid and the liquid have the same density, the solid body can be any whereinside the liquid and may move following currents if they exist in the liquid.Read more:How_does_the_density_of_a_body_and_that_of_a_liquid_determine_that_whether_the_body_will_float_or_sink_into_that_liquid
What happens to a liquid to a solid?
nothing happens after a solid chages into a liquid.
What phase of matter has the greastest density for most substances?
Solids are the densest state of matter for most substances. The variation of density for solids is typically very small.
What happens when a solid changes to a liquid?
nothing happens after a solid chages into a liquid.
How are the state changes of similar to the states changes in most other substances?
These changes of state are: solid to liquid, liquid to gas, gas to liquid, liquid to solid, solid to gas, gas to solid. The majority of substances have these state of matter changes.
