All the noble gases have solid forms that are denser than their liquid forms, so no, the liquid form is not denser than the solid form of Xe.
Less dense. For most substances, the solid form is more dense than the liquid form; water is a notable exception.Less dense.

Solid Argon is more dense than the liquid phase
In addition to water, for which the solid form (ice) is less dense than the liquid form, the element Gallium is also less dense in the liquid state. Gallium can be solid at room temperature but will melt in the hand.confirmed as solid less dense than liquid:gallium - 5.91 (solid) vs 6.095 (liquid)bismuth - 9.78 (solid) vs 10.05 (liquid)germanium - 5.323 (solid) vs 5.60 (liquid)silicon - 2.3290 (solid) vs 2.57 (liquid)water - 0.917 (solid) vs 0.998 (liquid)claimed but probably false:acetic acid - 1.266 (solid) vs 1.049 (liquid)antimony - 6.697 (solid) vs 6.53 (liquid) (this "error" is repeated in many places, inc wikipedia)Water is not always less dense in solid form. Depending on how the water crystals are formed, it may actually be more dense. Examples include HDA and VHDA.
The best example is ice, which is the solid form of the liquid we call water. Water's solid form (ice) floats on its liquid form, as we know.
Water is less dense as a solid. To understand this just think a constant volume of water. Freezing water causes the volume to expand and the ice solid floats on the liquid water. Therefore ice is LESS dense than liquid water.
Liquid magma is more dense than the solid material around it.

Certainly. Think about something solid such as a stone, will that sink or float in a liquid like water it will sink so it is more dense
Solid Argon is more dense than the liquid phase
solid will be settling at the bottom because liquid can not be denser than solid due to their arrangements of their molecules.
No, less dense. That's why ice cubes and bergs float.
Solid water, ice, is less dense than liquid water and floats on top. The solid state of other substances is more dense than the liquid state and will sink in the liquid.
Solid. Because it's more dense.
An object sinks if it is more dense than the liquid it displaces. So the deeper it sinks, the more dense it is than the liquid it is submerged in.
More dense. As a solid is formed the particles vibrate less and group closer together. One of the only exceptions to this is water. When water freezes and becomes a solid it becomes less dense which is why ice will float in your drink.
Solid water, ice, is less dense than its liquid state. This is essential for aquatic life. Since ice is less dense than liquid water, it floats to the top of of the water. This insulates the water beneath the ice, allowing the water beneath the ice to remain liquid. For other substances, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state.
This question is based on a false assumption that the outer core is solid and the inner core is liquid. This is incorrect. It is in fact the inner core that is solid (and so is the most dense) and the outer core which is liquid.
