No, liquids and solids do not occupy the same space. In a solid, the particles are tightly packed together in a fixed arrangement, while in a liquid, the particles are close together but can move past each other. This difference in particle arrangement allows liquids to flow and take the shape of their container, unlike solids which have a fixed volume and shape.

Does 1 pound of liquid equal 1 pound of solid?

The pound is a unit of weight, so anything that weighs one pound, regardless of whether it is a solid, a liquid, or anything else, has the same weight.


What is denser liquid silver or solid silver?

Solid silver is denser. Remember in a solid the atoms are closely packed and in a regular order. When it is a liquid the atoms are less closely packed an in an irregular order. Since liquid atoms are less closely packed, the same number of atoms occupy a larger space/volume. Since they occupy a larger volume for the same number then liquids arr less dense. Density = mass/ volume. Solid ; Using 1 gram (Silver) occupies say 0.25 cm^(3) of space Liquid ; using 1 gram(silver) occupies say 0.255 cm^(3) of space. Hence Density (Solid) =- 1/ 0.25 = 4 g/cm^(3) Density (Liquid) = 1 / 0.255 = 3.91,,, g/cm^(3) These are fictitious figures , just given to demonstrate. Also , remember when a mass gains energy it changes from solid to liquid and EXPANDS(Greater volume/space). So a block of solid silver , when placed in liquid silver will sink, because it is more dense. =


What Things cannot share the same space at same time?

Two solid objects cannot share the exact same physical space at the same time due to the laws of physics governing matter. Similarly, two people cannot occupy the same physical space simultaneously.

What is the same about a rock and a balloon?

Can the stone and water occupy the same space at the same time?

No, according to the laws of physics, two distinct substances like a stone and water cannot occupy the same space at the same time. Each substance has its own set of molecules that require physical space, making it physically impossible for them to occupy the same space simultaneously.


What can any molecule exist as?

Any molecule can exist as either: A Gas, a substance expanding occupy the space it is in and having no particular shape, A liquid, a substance not expanding, but reshaping to occupy the space it is in, and having no shape, A solid, a substance not adapting to the space it occupies in any way, and having a definite shape.
