Can a substance be found in more than one state of matter?

No, many substances have known melting points as well as known boiling points.A:Far from it. On Saturn's moon Titan, for example, methane exists in the form of clouds (gas), lakes (liquid) and ice (solid).Even here on Earth, common substances such as paraffin can likewise exist in all three states: otherwise, candles wouldn't burn.


Where did titanium get its name?

In Greek mythology, the Titans were the aunt and uncles of the Olympian gods, and were like giants even to them.Cronos (the Greek name for the god Saturn, which the moon Titan orbits) was the father of the gods, and the oldest and largest of the Titans. So when Saturn's largest moon was discovered in 1655, that name seemed a perfect fit.Ironically, Titan is only the second-largest moon in the solar system, behind Jupiter's Ganymede. It is, however, the only natural satellite with its own atmosphere -- which makes it unique among our system's moons.


Which sea does not exist on the earth?

There is no Blue Sea, although of course the phrase is used informally to refer to the ocean. The Red Sea is between Israel and Jordan. The Yellow Sea is between the Chinese mainland and the Korean. It is linked with the East China Sea to the south. The Black Sea is bordered by the former USSR, Turkey, Bulgaria, and Romania.

Is there water on saturns moon titan?

Yes, but not liquid water. The surface of Titan is made mostly of ice. It also has lakes and rivers of liquid methane.


Is titan the only moon known to hold liquid water?

Titan has no liquid water, it is too cold. But it does have oceans of methane. On Earth the temperature is way to hot for methane to be in liquid state. But on the cold surface of Titan the temperature and atmospheric pressure is just right for methane to exist in liquid form.Similar to how the temperature on Earth is just right for water to exist in liquid form.


What is the liquid substance in Saturn's moon titan?

It is liquid methane.


Is titan to small to have a atmosphere?

No indeed. The moon Titan has a nitrogen-rich atmosphere which contains a little bit of methane. Titan is the only moon in the solar system to have an atmosphere!


Does titan contain liquid below the surface?

Saturn's moon Titan has liquid methane on and presumably below the surface.


What does Titan has that no moon has?

Titan is the only moon in the system known to have a liquid based erosion cycle, which in Titan's case is liquid methane. On Earth, water performs a certain role. Titan is not the only moon with an atmosphere. Neptune's moon Triton has an atmosphere, although it is thinner.


Does the moon titan have an atmosphere?

Titan is the largest moon of Saturn and the only moon in the solar system that has a thick gaseous atmosphere, mostly of nitrogen, methane, and assorted hydrocarbons. It prevents visual observation from space. Scientists think that methane is constantly being added from sources within the moon.

Is it possible for methane rain to occur on the moon titan?

We believe so. The photos from the Huygens probe that landed on Titan appeared to show oceans of liquid methane, so the concept of "methane rain" isn't too far-fetched.


What saturnian moon is considered the best candidate for having life?

Probably Titan, the largest, known to have lakes or seas of methane. Way to cold for us, but life seems to arise even in VERY inhospitable climates.
