All elements have three states of matter. Solid, liquid and gas. Silver (Ag), is generally a solid at room temperature, though at extreme temperatures does change into a liquid.

Enough heat and that liquid could change into a gas.

Silver melts - turns to a liquid - at 961.93 degrees Centigrade, and boils (starts to turn to vapour) at 2,212.0 degrees Centigrade.

If you have seen a slivery liquid metal, that will be Mercury. As it happens, another name for Mercury is Quicksilver. Mercury is very poisonous, do not touch it or inhale the invisible vapours that it gives off.

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 denser liquid silver or solid silver?

Solid silver has a greater density than liquid silver which means that solid silver would sink.


What is liquid silver?

Liquid silver typically refers to liquid metal or a solution containing silver particles suspended in liquid. It is commonly used in jewelry-making, as a dietary supplement, or in various health and wellness products for its antimicrobial properties. Liquid silver should be used with caution as ingesting excessive amounts can lead to argyria, a condition that causes the skin to turn a bluish-gray color.


If you place a piece of solid silver into a container with liquid silver would it float or sink and WHY?

The solid silver would sink in liquid silver. This is because the density of solid silver is greater than that of liquid silver. Density is defined as mass per unit volume. Since the solid silver is more compact and has a higher mass per unit volume compared to the liquid silver, it will sink to the bottom of the container.


Can silver turn into a liquid?

Yes, silver can turn into a liquid state at high temperatures. The melting point of silver is 961.78 degrees Celsius (1763.2 degrees Fahrenheit), at which point it will transition from a solid to a liquid.

What happens when liquid nitrogen reacts with silver?

The silver gets really, really cold and the nitrogen evaporates. When the "reaction" is done, you still have elemental silver. If you want any silver nitrate (AgNO3), you have to react nitric acid with silver.
