The Archimedean Principle takes over.

The weight of a body immersed in a fluis is equal to the weight of the fluid disoplaced.

A solid will either float or sink , but it displaced the fluid. Sometimes the solid may absord the fluid, but there is still a displacement of fluid.

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 you put a solid in a liqud?

When a solid is placed in a liquid, it can dissolve, remain unaffected, or react with the liquid depending on the properties of the solid and liquid. If the solid is soluble in the liquid, it will dissolve and form a homogeneous solution. If the solid is insoluble, it will remain as a separate phase within the liquid. If the solid reacts with the liquid, a chemical reaction may occur leading to the formation of new substances.


What happen to liquid in water?

When a solid is placed in water, it will dissolve if the attractive forces between the water molecules and the solid molecules are stronger than the forces holding the solid molecules together. If the solid does not dissolve, it may remain suspended in the water as a suspension or sink to the bottom as a sediment.


Can a solid become a liquid by slowing it's atoms?

well, a solid has the slowest atoms, they are placed closely together, and because of that, they cannot move much. A liquid has faster atoms, placed slightly farther apart, allowing them to move faster. So, no, liquid atoms are faster than solid atoms P.S. just so you know, the atoms of a gas move the fastest, and are placed the farthest apart of the three


If cubes of solid argon were put in a cup of liquid argon what would happen?

If cubes of solid argon were placed in a cup of liquid argon, the solid argon would begin to melt due to the heat transfer from the warmer liquid argon. As the solid argon melts, it would turn into liquid argon, contributing to the overall volume of the liquid. Since both the solid and liquid argon are composed of the same substance, the process would not result in any significant chemical reactions or changes in the properties of argon. The temperature of the liquid may drop slightly as it absorbs heat to melt the solid, but it would remain within the liquid argon's boiling point range.

What is a suspention made up of?

A solid and a liquid. A suspension is a mixture usually of a fine powder with a liquid that the solid will not dissolve in. The solid is mixed thoroughly into the liquid and "levitates" in the liquid. The solid can usually be removed from the liquid by spinning in a centrifuge or filtration.


Example of liquid to solid?

What happen when liquid mixed with solid?

If the solid is soluble (can dissolve) then it will dissolve in the liquid and give you a solution.

What is it when solid chsnges into a liquid?

When a solid is heated it will usually change to this phase?

When a solid is heated, it will usually change to the liquid phase. This process is known as melting.
