What else can I help you with?
How call you tell if a substance is more or less dense then water?
You can determine if a substance is more or less dense than water by comparing their densities. Water has a density of 1 g/cm3 at 4 degrees Celsius. If a substance has a density greater than 1 g/cm3, it is more dense than water. If it has a density less than 1 g/cm3, it is less dense than water.
The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called what?
The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called buoyancy. Acids are substances that form hydronium ions when dissolved in water.
If substances of different densities were layered on top of each other the less dense will be on the top or bottom?
if they are all fluids than the less dense will be on the top and the most dense on the bottom but if there are solids than the solids will be in the order you put them in.
When do you say that a substances has lower density than water?
A substance has lower density than water when it floats on water. This indicates that the substance is less dense than water.
What substance is least dense rubber copper wood or mercury?
The density of rubber can vary, and the density of wood can vary even more (unless we're putting air in the rubber to make foam). In general, however, wood is less dense than rubber, rubber is less dense than copper, and copper is less dense than mercury.
How can you determine weather a solid substance is more dense or less dence than water?
You can determine whether a solid substance is more or less dense than water by comparing their densities. If the density of the substance is greater than the density of water (1 g/cm^3), then the substance is more dense. If the density of the substance is less than the density of water, then the substance is less dense.

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.
Which substance is less dense than water?
dry ice
Why does one substance float over another?
A substance floats over another substance if it is less dense. Density is a measure of how much mass is in a given volume, so if one substance is less dense than another, it will float on top. This is due to the buoyant force exerted on the less dense substance by the denser substance.
What makes balloons less dense air?
If a balloon is filled with a substance that's less dense than air ... such as helium, hydrogen, steam, or warmer air ... then the balloon is less dense than air.
A substance floats or sinks in another because of its relative?
density. If the substance is less dense than the liquid it is placed in, it will float. If the substance is more dense than the liquid, it will sink.
When sound travels in gas is it more dense or less dense?
The gas phase is less dense than the liquid or solid phase of a substance. Density is not a property of sound.
How do you make a coin float?
make it less dense than the substance it is floating in.
What is the result if an object or substance less dense than another?
If an object or substance is less dense than another, it will float on top of the denser object or substance. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, where the less dense material displaces an equal volume of the denser material, causing it to float.
The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called what?
The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called buoyancy. Acids are substances that form hydronium ions when dissolved in water.
If substances of different densities were layered on top of each other the less dense will be on the top or bottom?
if they are all fluids than the less dense will be on the top and the most dense on the bottom but if there are solids than the solids will be in the order you put them in.
