First you must understand "density." Density is the amount of atoms in a given volume. You can artificially create situations when there are more atoms in a given volume where the atoms are either "dry air" or "water vapor." But in ordinary situations, water vapor is mixed with what we call "air" and in ordinary situations, "dry air" has less water vapor in a given volume, so, people tend to say that water vapor is "heavy" or more "dense" than "air" or "dry air."
What else can I help you with?
What will happen if the density of air become less than that of water vapour?
Clouds cannot swim as they do now
Do water vapour has volume?
But of course the vapour of the water have the volume. but it is a less than the water itself goodbye.
Why does water vapour have less density?
Water vapor has less density than liquid water because it consists of individual water molecules that are more spread out and have higher kinetic energy. This causes water vapor to be less compact and have less mass per unit volume compared to liquid water.
Why do you think ice has a higher density than water vapour?
Because ice is solid and has a heavier weight that cause it to have higher density and as for water vapour, it is gaseous and has lower density due to not having any weight.
Which has less density a cork or water?
A cork is less denser than water because cork is floating on water so it will have less density than water
How are mass and volume related to the sinking and floating of an object?
An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.
When you compare the density of water or air with another object how can you tell which has the lower or higher density?
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
What can you infer about the density if a block of the substance floats in water?
If a block of the substance floats in water, it means that the density of the substance is less than the density of water. Since objects with lower density than water float in water, we can infer that the substance is less dense than water.
How do you know if a compound has a density less than 1 gmL?
If it floats in water, it has a density less than water. Density of water is 1.0 g/mL
What liquid has a density less than water?
Volatile liquids such as alcohol and ethanol have less density than water. They also evaporate faster than water does.
Why is density needed to know whether a substance will float or sink in water?
It's actually pretty easy. If the density of the substance is higher than the density of water, the object will sink. If the density of the substance is lower than the density of water, the object will float. Be aware though that various substances may have dissolved into the water, thus changing its density. For example, seawater has a different density than fresh water.
Is it true that when the weight of an object is less than the density of water that object the object will float?
The weight does not determine if an object will float in water. If an object has a DENSITY that is more than the density of water then it will sink, if it's density is less than the density of water it will float.
