Ice floats. Most other substances are denser in the solid state.
There is no such thing as solid weight. All matter on Earth has weight whether it is solid, liquid or gas. There is also no such thing as a solid quart. A quart is a measure of volume usually applied to liquids or granulated substances such as flour or sugar. The volume of solid objects is usually measured in cubic centimeters or cubic inches. The volume of a given solid object will vary inversely with its density. The denser it is, the smaller it will be.
Density is dependent on mass and volume. Density is not a fixed constant for all substances either. The measure of density is by substance based on the above factors.
Yes. Almost all substances are less dense in their liquid form than their solids, as the solid structure is more closely packed. Water is the exception to this, hence ice floats.
Definite shape and volume is a state that defines solid.
the volume of the solid would go down , thus making the solid into a liquid.
The volume of most substances will reduce if the substance changes from liquid to solid.
ALL substances in a gaseous state do not have a definite volume or shape.ALL substances in a liquid state have a definite volume but no definite shape.ALL substances in a solid state have a definite volume and a definite shape.Oxygen usually presents as a gas.

No. Solids made of different substances will normally have different densities.
The volume of a solid (whether regularly or irregularly shaped) can be determined by fluid displacement. Displacement of liquid can also be used to determine the volume of a gas. The combined volume of two substances is usually greater than the volume of just one of the substances. However, sometimes one substance dissolves in the other and in such cases the combined volume is not additive.

Definite shape and volume is a state that defines solid.
It's called sublimation. Not too many substances do this, but two common substances that do are carbon dioxide (CO2) and moth balls. The opposite process of going from a gas to a solid is called deposition.
