Can gold float in a molten vat of lead?
No. Th density of lead is 11.36 g/cm3, the density of gold is 19.32 g/cm3. Objects only float in liquids with a density greater than their own.
What substances will sink in mercury?
the solids that will float on liquid mercury are coal, ironware's or objects with lower specific density
Which metal can be quite poisonous when ingested?
Several are such as lead, but mercury (the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature) is very poisonous.
What would happen if lead -206 lost 2 protons and 2 neutrons?
Lead has atomic number 82, if it loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons (ie an alpha particle) it becomes mercury with atomic number 80. Only lead-204 (1.4 percent of natural lead) and lead-210 (trace only) appear to do this, and 204 has such a long half life that it is regarded as stable, so your postulated reaction does not seem to be typical of lead as a whole.
Can silver float on water?
Yes because silver's density is less than mercury's density.
Would a block of aluminum float or sink in a pool of mercury at room temperature with a density of 13.6?
A block of aluminum will float on a pool of mercury at nearly any temperature (except at extremely elevated temperatures (above 350 °C) where mercury is no longer liquid) The density of aluminum is 2.70 grams per cm3, whereas the density of mercury is 13.53 grams per cm3. Therefore mercury is more than 5 time more dense than aluminum! Anything that is less dense than a liquid will float in that liquid. Not only would aluminum float but it float with only 1/5 of it's volume submerged.
Would a block of wood float on top of water?
depending what kind of wood it would probably only be driftwood that would float.
What does not float in mercury?
Just about anything that is lighter then mercury. Dont be tempted to put your gold ring on mercury as it will dissolve in it, and let of a toxic gas while doing so Iron, water, sand, lead, wood, All the things that are lighter then Mercury.
Can body lotion block x-ray?
No, the only thing that can block X-rays is a sheet of lead.
What does mercury and lead chloride make?
Both lead and mercury are metals, physically lead is solid at room temperature, however mercury is a liquid, but chemically they are both metals. Mercury is a classified as a transition metal, however technically isn't as it doesn't not have a partially filled d-orbital in either it elemental state or as one of it's common ions. Lead on the other hand belongs to the group known as the poor metals.
Can gold float in a molten vat of lead?
No. Th density of lead is 11.36 g/cm3, the density of gold is 19.32 g/cm3. Objects only float in liquids with a density greater than their own.
Does Mercury float?
no, mercury is a substanable resource meaning non waterised substance so cannot float in water No, mercury is heavier than water. It can't float in water. It is actually a metal that is liquid at room temperature and for several degrees around that. That's why it's used in thermometers.
What elements make up the compound mercury?
Mercury is an element itself. It is the only metal that is a liquid in room temperature. This d-block element has a silver-like color.
Is mercury or lead or nickel or tin liquid at room temperature?
Mercury is the only one of the four metals that's a liquid at room temperature. The others are solids.
What are examples of liquid metals?
The Mercury is the only liquid metal at room temperature.
What substances will sink in mercury?
the solids that will float on liquid mercury are coal, ironware's or objects with lower specific density
