A definition of lower density doesn't exist. Solids with densities under
1,00 g/cm3have a very low density.
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.
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.
It depends on your definition of "better". Solid fuel is generally lower maintenance.
An object float in a liquid only when the density of the solid is lower than the density of the 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.
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.
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.
A solid float on water if the density is lower than the density of water.
You think probable to the density, lower than the density of liquid water.
The density of water in its solid state, which is ice, is lower than that of most other solid materials. This is why ice floats on water.
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.
A solid block with a lower density than water will float in a container of water. This is because the buoyant force acting on the block is greater than its weight, causing it to rise to the surface and float.

water is the only substance on earth where its density is HIGHER when liquid, and LOWER when solid. a substance will float on top of another if its density is lower than the other substance. so because the ice has a LOWER density it will float on top of the water
