What is an areometer?
An areometer is a device used to measure the specific gravity of liquids or density of solids.
What metric units are used to measure volume of solids and liquids?
Centimeter cube,Decimeter cube or Meter cube.
Does liquids have a higher density than solids?
no
When comparing solids liquids and gases which phase generally has the greatest density?
Solids
Why do some solids and liquids float?
because of density
What is the density gcm3?
Density = mass / volume. These can be many different units, but in the metric (SI) system for liquids and solids mass is usually measured in grams and volume in cubic centimeters, so density becomes grams / cm3.
What causes objects to float?
in relation to solids or liquids in liquids: Density. A lighter density compound/liquid will float in a heavier density liquid
Why liquids have lower density than solids?
Not all liquids have lower densities than all solids. Low density solids frequently contain air or other gasses as part of their makeup (cok, Styrofoam, etc)
What happens to the density of solids liquids and gases when they are heated?
they are compromised.
How is density related to the states of matter?
Solids have the highest density, followed by liquids and then gases.
Why do liquids have lower density than solid?
Not all liquids have lower densities than all solids. Low density solids frequently contain air or other gasses as part of their makeup (cok, Styrofoam, etc)
Is it true that weight and size is used to measure density?
To calculate the density, find the mass and the volume. Mass divided by volume = Density. Each substance has a different density. Density is measured in g/cc (solids) or g/ml (liquids).
