Yes. Glass sinks to the bottom if placed in a container of water, so it must have the higher density.

∙ 15y agoHmm, if you happen to drop a piece of glass and it falls UP in the sky, well, then air is denser :) and that doesnt happend very often? So, glass is denser then air.

Why does light refract when it passes from air into a glass slab?
Because glass slab is optically denser than air.
Is diamond more dense than glass?
Diamonds are denser and harder than glass, as diamonds can score glass - as in a diamond glass-cutter.
Does milk float on honey?
Yes, milk will float on honey. Honey is much denser and heavier than milk. If you drop a spoonful of honey into a glass of milk it will sink to the bottom of the glass.
Is clay denser than sponge?
Yes much more denser than sponge.
What is least dense cork or lead?
Cork is less dense than water because it floats. Both glass and Mercury (a metal) are denser than water.
What is the pure metal?
Tungsten is the strongest pure metal in the world. Tungsten has a very high density, more than 19.3 times denser than water. It is denser than uranium and lead.

When light travels from air to glass the wave speed decreases B'coz glass is denser than air.?
Correct.

Denser is another form of the word density how does it relate?
It describes things that have a higher density than another object. For example, "The metal ball is denser than the baloon."
Is metal stronger than glass?
no.
What is denser hot metal or cold metal?
Cold metal.
Which has a greater density a metal or a liquid?
The question is deeply flawed. Many metals are denser than many liquids, but many liquids are denser than some metals (and then, of course, there's mercury, which is both a metal and a liquid at room temperature). If all you know about two substances is that one is a liquid and one is a metal and you're forced to bet your life on which is denser ... your odds are probably SLIGHTLY better betting on the metal.
Which is heavier a piece of metal or a piece of wood?
It will depend on the size of the two pieces. A log is going to be heavier than a penny. Metal is denser than wood.
Does obsidian float?
No, not unless it is somehow shaped into a form that displaces less water than it's mass. Obsidian is volcanic glass, glass is much denser than water, therefore sinks.
