Why are units used to express the densities of gasses different from those used to express the densitites of solids or liquids?

They're not. As you can see below, the picture shows first a solid, then a liquid then a gas. The molecules start off very dense. Then the liquid is less dense then the gas is the least dense.

Water and corn syrup have different densities even though they are both liquids.?
true
Do different liquids have a different amount of cohesion?
Because of different densities (ex. water and oil)
Why would four differently colored liquids in a jar show the liquids do not mix and so the colors remain separate?
The greatest density would be the bottom and the lowest density at the top, because the liquids have different densities.
Why is it possible to separate mixtures of liquids by boiling?
Different liquids boil at different temperatures. When the boiling points (the temperature at which a liquid boils) are sufficiently different, boiling can be used to seperate the liquids
Vinegar and water are both clear liquids at room temperature what properties could you use to tell them apart?
You could find the densities of the liquids, and perform other simple tests such as the odor, and if you still can tell them apart, test the solubility of sugar in each liquid.
Liquids that do not mix form into layers when they have different densities true or false?
true
Why different liquids having different densities?
certain molecules are more tightly packed than others
Why does liquids float on each other?
Because they aren't soluble in each other and have different densities.
Water and corn syrup have different densities even though they are both liquids.?
true
Why does sound travel differently in solids liquids and gasses?
Gases, liquids and solid all have different consistencies (densities). So the sound is changed
Why do liquids show varied densities?
Because liquids are different substances or mixture of substances; each chemical compound (substance) has a specific density.
If you make the same object float on the surface of different liquids like mercury and alcohol it floats in different levels why?
It floats in different levels because the two liquids are different. They're densities are different from one another.
Do different liquids have a different amount of cohesion?
Because of different densities (ex. water and oil)
Does every liquid weights the same?
The vast majority of liquids have different densities. The weight of a liquid depends on the force of gravity and the mass of the liquid. The mass of a liquid depends on the volume of liquid and the density of liquid. Therefore, the vast majority of liquids have different masses, densities and corresponding weights.
What happens if you mix together liquids that have different densities?
The liquid with the higher density will stay down while the one with the lower density will rise up, thus stratifying the liquids into different layers.
Can liquids be layered?
The layer of the Earth that has a liquid and solid layer is the core. The outer core is molten, while the inner core is a solid ball of iron.
Three liquids with different are dumped into a glass What do you expect to see?
They form individual layers depending on their densities...the liquids with lighter density floats on liquid with heavier density......
