What else can I help you with?
Will a liquid of higher density displace a liquid of lower density?
Yes, a liquid of higher density will displace a liquid of lower density when the two liquids are immiscible. This is because the liquid with the higher density will sink below the other liquid due to gravity, displacing it.
Why the aqueous layer is below the organic layer in the separating funnel?
The density of the aqueous layer is higher.
What causes the pressure to increase as you go deeper below the earth's crust?
Because the density of the force increases.
What causes the pressure to increase as you go deeper below the earths crust?
Because the density of the force increases.
Why when water freezes it causes its container to expand?
Because water expands cooling it from 4oC to below 0oC. The density of ice is 10% lower, meaning 10% higher volume per kg mass, so the expansion is 10%.
What causes sinking?
Density. Objects that are more dense than other less dense objects will sink below them. This is how floating works, as well.
What happens to the density of air as you go further below sea level altitude but in dry land?
As you descend further below sea level in dry land, the density of air increases due to the weight of the air above compressing the air at lower altitudes. This leads to higher pressure and more molecules of air being packed into a given volume, increasing the air density.
What does the seawaters density do as its temperature decreases?
As seawater temperature decreases, its density increases until it reaches its maximum density at around 4 degrees Celsius. Further cooling below this temperature causes the density to decrease due to the formation of ice, which is less dense than liquid water.
Ocean crust dives below continental crust because of what?
Because of its higher density, and gravity. One part of plate tectonic theory.
How is ammonia liquefied?
Liquefaction by cooling down (lower temperature) and compression (higher pressure)
Why does density decrease with height in the atmosphere?
Density decreases with height in the atmosphere because as you go higher, there is less air above pushing down on the air below, causing it to spread out and become less dense.
What is the relationship between the density of earth materials and depth below the surface of the earth?
The density of Earth materials generally increases with depth below the surface due to the increasing pressure from the overlying layers. As depth increases, the materials experience more compression, leading to higher densities. The variation in density with depth is important for understanding the structure and composition of the Earth's interior.
