Gravitation attracts masses, resulting in an attractive force. In a liquid, the molecules move quickly and move out of the way of a solid object in the liquid. Hence, a dense solid object will sink if its density is greater than that of the liquid because the liquid is displaced by the object as it moves.

What can change the solubility of a solid in a liquid?
temperature. The higher the temperature of the liquid, the more of the solid you can dissolve in it.
What things can affect solubility?
effect of temperature on solubility - solid in liquid-most solid become more soluble in a liquid as the temperature rises. effect of pressure on solubility -pressure changes have little effect on solubility if the solute is a liquid or a solid.
Will more solid dissolve in a shallower dish?
It depends on the liquid and the solid
How does the arrangement and movement of particles change as a substance changes from a liquid to a gas and solid to a liquid?
From a liquid to a gas, the particles become more spread out and move slower. From a solid to a liquid, the particles also become more spread out and move slower.
How do the bonds between particles in a solid compare with those in a liquid?
solid is more compact and liquid is more lose so that the atoms are able to slide over one another.
What is a solid or liquid of two more or more metals?
A alloy is a solid or liquid mixture of two or more metals.
How can you cause more solid solid be dissolved in a liquid?
Usually heating the liquid will allow more solid to be dissolved. This not always the case though.
What has more energy gas liquid or solid?
Solid has more energy. It has extensive energy as compared to liquid and gas.
Why does solid body weigh more in air than when immersed in a liquid?
the buoyant force of the liquid on the solid is more than the buoyant force of the air on the solid.
Which can get compressed the most a solid and liquid or gas?
A gas can be compressed more than a liquid and a solid.
What can change the solubility of a solid in a liquid?
temperature. The higher the temperature of the liquid, the more of the solid you can dissolve in it.
Is mantle more like a liquid or a solid?
It's more like a solid.
Which of these exerts more friction-a gas or solid or liquid?
A solid
Are your body's made of more liquid gas or solid?
Liquid
When comparing a solid with a liquid which has particles with more energy?
Liquid
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid it is placed?
The solid cannot float in this liquid.
What factor can change the solubility of a solid in a liquid?
temperature. The higher the temperature of the liquid, the more of the solid you can dissolve in it.
