What is the relationship between temperature and density of liquids and gases?

Temperature can control the density of liquids and gases because the temperature can make the molecules move faster when its hotter or slower when its cold.
Think of water. When it's hot, it creates steam by making the molecules move and spread into the air because molecules are moving around and spreading out within the room. When water's cold, it turns into ice because molecules slow down and stop, which turns the liquid into a solid.

What is the normal relationship between solids liquids gases and density?
they all come from water
What is the relationship between a liquids density and the location it appears in a column of liquid?
The denser it is, the lower in the column it will settle.
The relationship between the upward and downward forces exerted in liquids is given by the liquid's what?
A liquid's buoyancy is determined by its specific gravity (density).
How can temperature affect density in a liquid when temperature is decreasing?
Typically, a lower temperature denotes higher density, but many LIQUIDS are uncompressible (water actually expands slightly as it freezes) and therefore density in maintained. FLUIDS on the other hand encompass both liquids and gasses, of which gasses ARE compressible and will increase in density as temperature drops.
Which you expect to change a liquids density?
Study island answer: Temperature of the fluid
How does viscosity compare to density?
they are two truly different concepts. The density is a measurement of the molecular weight of the composition. In simpler words, density = number of molecules x molecular weight/volume occupied, while the viscosity is a measurement of the inter-molecular forces and molecule shapes. Viscosity tells you the "friction" between two layers of the given fluid, while density varies slightly with temperature, viscosity changes rapidly. Both density and viscosity decreases with temperature, but viscosity mostly has an exponential relationship with temperature. Density holds a linear relationship. This temperature viscosity relationship is the base of the auto lubricant technology. Viscosity and density are two different physical phenomena depending on totally different aspects. The common misconception of "heavier fluids are more viscos" is to be omitted.
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
What characteristics do ionic liquids have?
Such liquids have high density, good electrical conductivity and become solid as temperature decreases from their melting point.
How does cold temperature affect density?
there is a property called convection which applies to liquids and gases. that property says colder liquids or gases are denser.
What is the relationship between mass and density when the volume of each liquid is the same?
For two liquids of the same volume, the liquid with a higher density will have greater mass. Similarly, the liquid with a greater mass has a higher density. This is only true for samples of equal volume, however.
Why is it necessary to state the temperature with a density value?
It is necessary to indicate the temperature when giving the density of liquids because temperature effects the density of many liquids. For example, water increases in density as it becomes colder.
Why do volume and mass of a substance have a linear relationship?
Because volume (mL) is multiplied by density (g/mL) to obtain mass (g). Since the formula for density does not contain (mL) raised or reduced to any power, the relationship between volume and mass (we call the relaitonship density) is linear.
