Solids are more dense than both liquids and gases. This is because their molecules are packed much more tightly together and are held in place and unable to move freely. This means that per unit volume there are molecules in a sold than in a gas or liquid therefore making the solid more dense.
The person who answered before me forgot something, there are exceptions
What else can I help you with?
Are most materials more or less dense in their solid state than in liquid?
Most materials are denser in their solid state than in their liquid state. This is because in the solid state, molecules are packed closely together in a fixed arrangement, while in the liquid state, they are more spread out and can move more freely.
Is magma more dense then rock?
No. Magma varies in density, but it will be less dense than a solid rock of the same composition.
Is gas dense?
Gas is not dense, solids should be dense, liquids are dense, but not as much as solids.
What is an example of a solid that Is less dense than a liquid?
Solid water, ice, is less dense than its liquid state. This is essential for aquatic life. Since ice is less dense than liquid water, it floats to the top of of the water. This insulates the water beneath the ice, allowing the water beneath the ice to remain liquid. For other substances, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state.
How do the densities of solid liquids and gases compare?
The density of solid substances is generally higher than that of liquids, which in turn are higher than gases. This is because the particles in a solid are tightly packed together, while in a liquid they are more spread out, and in a gas, they are far apart.
What is more dense?
a solid is more dense
Is solid ice more dense than water?
No. It is less dense.
Does a solid get more dense if its volume increases?
No. It gets less dense
Can a solid be more dense than a liquid?
Yes, a solid can be more dense than a liquid. Density is defined as mass per unit volume, so a solid with a higher mass per unit volume than a liquid will be more dense. An example is comparing ice (solid) to water (liquid), where ice is more dense than liquid water.
How can you determine whether solid object is more dense or less dense than water?
If more dense, it will sink when put into water; if less dense it floats.
How can you determine whether a solid object is more dense then water?
Put it in water. If it floats, it's less dense. If it sinks, it's more dense.
How can you determine whether a solid object is more dense or less dense?
Gauge its buoyancy. Put it in the water. objects that are less dense will float while objects that are more dense sink.
Are most materials more or less dense in their solid state than in liquid?
Most materials are denser in their solid state than in their liquid state. This is because in the solid state, molecules are packed closely together in a fixed arrangement, while in the liquid state, they are more spread out and can move more freely.
How can you determine whether a solid substance is more dense or less dense than water?
see if it floats, if it floats it is less dense.
Is water more dense as a solid then a liquid?
No, less dense. That's why ice cubes and bergs float.
Is an ice cube more dense or less dense than liquid water?
Less dense. For most substances, the solid form is more dense than the liquid form; water is a notable exception.Less dense.

What is more dense rock or solid?
It depends on the particular rock and on the particular solid. Please restate the question, giving more specifics, such as what rock and what solid.
