Why does a dense object float in the Dead Sea?
An object float in a liquid only when the density of the solid is lower than the density of the liquid.
Would a ride of solid silver sink or float in liquid silver?
sink
What is the only solid that floats in its liquid?
The only solid that floats in its liquid is ice. This occurs because the density of ice is lower than the density of liquid water, allowing it to float on the surface.
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid it is placed?
If the density of a solid substance is greater than that of the liquid it is placed in, the solid substance will sink to the bottom of the liquid. This occurs because objects with higher density will displace an equal volume of the lower density liquid, causing the solid to sink.
What happens if density of a solid substance is more than liquid?
If the density of a solid substance is more than that of a liquid, the solid substance will sink in the liquid. This is because objects with higher density will displace a volume of liquid that has a lower density, causing the solid to sink to the bottom.
In a solid liquid mixture of this substance will the solid float or sink?
Whether the solid will float or sink in a solid-liquid mixture depends on the relative densities of the solid and the liquid. If the density of the solid is greater than that of the liquid, then the solid will sink. If the density of the solid is less than that of the liquid, then the solid will float.
If you place a solid in a liquid will ether sink?
That depends on the relative densities of the solid and the liquid. If the solid is denser than the liquid, the solid will sink. If the liquid is denser, the solid will float.
If you place a solid in a liquid it will either sink or?
float, depending on its density relative to the density of the liquid. If the solid is denser than the liquid, it will sink. If the solid is less dense than the liquid, it will float.
What solid substance will float easily in its liquid form?
Ice (solid water) will float easily in its liquid form due to its lower density compared to liquid water.
Can iron float in any liquid?
Solid iron will float in liquid mercury. In most liquids it will sink.
Why does a dense object float in the Dead Sea?
An object float in a liquid only when the density of the solid is lower than the density of the liquid.
Is it impossible for a solid to float on a liquid?
no ice floats on water
How do you know whether something will float or sink?
It depends on the density of the solid, liquid, or gas. If the density is lower than water it will float. (Water's density is about 1). Also, if the volume of the solid, liquid, or gas is bigger than the mass then it will also float. It will sink if the solid, liquid, or gas's density is higher than water's density. :)
Why is an ice cube able to float on liquid ice?
it's a solid
Can any kind of metal float?
Yes, provided you have the metal in a solid form which can be shaped so it will float, and a substance which it is liquid enough to float in at that temperature.
Would a ride of solid silver sink or float in liquid silver?
sink
What is the only solid that floats in its liquid?
The only solid that floats in its liquid is ice. This occurs because the density of ice is lower than the density of liquid water, allowing it to float on the surface.
