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.

no because solid is hard not a liquid


How does the density of a body and that of a liquid determine that whether the body will float or sink into that liquid?

If the density of the solid body is greater than the density of the liquid the bodywill sink. If the density of the liquid is greater than the density of the solid thebody will float.If the solid and the liquid have the same density, the solid body can be any whereinside the liquid and may move following currents if they exist in the liquid.Read more:How_does_the_density_of_a_body_and_that_of_a_liquid_determine_that_whether_the_body_will_float_or_sink_into_that_liquid


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 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.


In a solid liquid mixture of this substance will the solid float or sink?

Whether the solid will float or sink in a solid-liquid mixture depends on the relative densities of the solid and the liquid. If the density of the solid is greater than that of the liquid, then the solid will sink. If the density of the solid is less than that of the liquid, then the solid will float.


How the density of a solid and a liquid compare?

Density is the amount of matter in a given volume. The particles in a solid state are tightly packed together, therefore a solid sate would have a greater density then a liquid, and gas. The particles in a liquid state are together, but are able to move and slide by one another. This density is not as great as a solid state. Particles in a gaseous state are spread very far apart, and moving a lot. A gas would not have a large density. The particle theory of matter affects both masse, volume, density, and viscosity.

If you place a solid in a liquid it will either sink or?

float, depending on its density relative to the density of the liquid. If the solid is denser than the liquid, it will sink. If the solid is less dense than the liquid, it will float.


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.


Which states of matter has low density high density and quite high density?

You are asking for comparatives. Each state can be any when compared to another state except the extremes. Liquid or gas either lower or higher depending on what you compare it to.


Solid or liquid argon have greater density?

Matter has more density when solid than when in a liquid state. The atoms are closer together.
