Is an ice cube more dense than liquid water?
Slightly less dense. Put an ice cube in water ; it floats. It Does NOT sink.
Is ice cube a solid gas or liquid?
solid with hydrogen bonds making it less dense than its liquid form
Will a silver cube float in liquid silver?
Only if it is less dense than the liquid silver, yes. However if both densities of the silver cube and the liquid silver are equal, or the same as each other. Then the silver cube will stay where ever you leave it in the liquid silver.
What is less compact ice or water?
Ice. A give weight of frozen water will occupy a large volume than the same weight of liquid water.
Which ice cube will sink the one in water or hydrogen peroxide?
an ice cube cannot sink in water because its density is less than that of water. this is because of the air bubbles trapped inside; that make the ice cube less dense than water.
Is an ice cube more dense than liquid water?

Is an ice cube more dense or less dense than liquid water?

When a ice cube floats i water they are less what?
Less dense
Does adding water to a liquid make it less dense?
That depends on the specific situation. Assuming the liquids just mix, and don't have some other reaction: * Adding water to a liquid that is denser than water will result in a liquid that is less dense (than the liquid that is not water). * Adding water to a liquid that is less dense than water will result in a liquid that is more dense.
Is liquid water less dense than ice cubes?
No. Liquid water is more dense. This is why ice cubes float on liquid water.
Is a ice cube solid or liquid?
solid with hydrogen bonds making it less dense than its liquid form
Why ice cube floats on water?
Ice is less dense than water.
What is a way to see that ice is less dense then liquid water?
Put ice cubes in a glass of water. They will float, indicating that they are less dense than liquid water.
The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called what?
The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called buoyancy. Acids are substances that form hydronium ions when dissolved in water.
Is ice cube gas or liquid or solid?
solid with hydrogen bonds making it less dense than its liquid form
Is a ice cube a liquid solid gas?
solid with hydrogen bonds making it less dense than its liquid form
A liquid that is less dense than water is?
oil
