What is it called when a substance is a solid and liquid?
There is no actual name for a solid and liquid. An item can be a solid and liquid, but that is only under different pressures. For instance: The iron that makes up the Earths core is a solid, but that same material that is found in the Earths upper mantel is a liquid. This is because of the pressure differences
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.
Why does the earths mantel remain in a liquid state?
The Earth's mantle remains in a solid state, not a liquid state. The mantle is mostly solid rock that flows like a very viscous fluid over long timescales due to high temperatures and pressures, but it is not a true liquid.
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?
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.
What is the meaning of crustmantel and core?
Simplified : crust is the outer solid rock, mantel is liquid rock, and core is metal (both liquid and solid).
How would you describe the earths layers?
The Inner Core is a liquid. Outer core: solid mantel: inbetween crust: solid
Is the lower mantle of the Earth a solid or liquid?
the lower mantle of earth is a solid
Is the earth a solid or a liquid?
Both. The upper mantle is solid and the lower mantle is liquid.

Is density of liquid have lower density of solid?
In general, liquids have lower densities than solids. This is because particles in a liquid are less compactly arranged compared to those in a solid, leading to a lower density. However, there are exceptions, such as ice having a lower density than liquid water.
Is the lower mantle solid or liquid?
The lower part of the Mantle is liquid.
How does the density of a liquid compare with the density of a solid?
That depends on the liquid and the solid. Liquid mercury has a very high density. Liquid gasoline has a very low density. At the melting point the density of a liquid and a solid are almost the same.
What is it outer core or inner core?
the outer core is the liquid layer of the earth's internal structure moving downwards fr the lower mantel while the inner core is solid layer of the earth's core composed of iron nickel alloys
What are the three innermost layers of Earth?
Innermost- Solid nickel iron core; Surrounded by a liquid core that also might be nickel iron; Liquid mantel made of all sorts of stuff; Upper mantel called Moho, which is like plastic...thick toffee; Outermost-Thin crust
What are the layers of earth composed of?
there are 4 layers crust- dirt, mantel- hot rock, outer core- liquid metal, inner core- solid metal.
Why does gas have a lower density than a solid?
A gas has a lower density than either a liquid or solid because its molecules are not as compressed as the other two states of matter. Gas has weaker intermolecular bonds than either a solid or liquid.
