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.
What else can I help you with?
What solid substance will float easily in its liquid form?
Ice (solid water) will float easily in its liquid form due to its lower density compared to liquid water.
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.
What solid can be in a liquid?
Any solid can be placed in a liquid. If the solid is less dense then it will float. If it is not soluble and its melting temperature is higher than the temperature of the liquid it will remain solid and not become part of a mixture. any solid can be converted into liquid except those which becomes sublimed.
What is the temperature called at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid?
The temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid is called the melting point.
What is used to separate solids that floats from the remaining liquid in a mixture?
A method commonly used to separate solids that float in a liquid mixture is called filtration. This involves passing the mixture through a filter that traps the solid particles while allowing the liquid to pass through. Another method is decantation, where the liquid is carefully poured off, leaving the solids behind in the container.
What solid substance will float easily in its liquid form?
Ice (solid water) will float easily in its liquid form due to its lower density compared to liquid water.
Is toothpaste gas liquid or solid?
neither, its a substance known as thixotropic mixture
What is a liquid or solid substance or mixture that does not allow an electric current?
an insulator
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.
Is gold pure substance a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Liquid gold-homogeneous Solid-heterogenous
What is a substance that is both a solid and a liquid called?
jell-o (:, just kidding its actuallly callled a precipitate, not precpitation like in rain but precpitation as in to chemicals mixing together for form a new substance, kind of like a chemical reaction.
Can any kind of metal float?
Yes, provided you have the metal in a solid form which can be shaped so it will float, and a substance which it is liquid enough to float in at that temperature.
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.
If you place a solid in a liquid will ether sink?
That depends on the relative densities of the solid and the liquid. If the solid is denser than the liquid, the solid will sink. If the liquid is denser, the solid will float.
Why does a icebreg 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
What is evaporation in separating mixture?
Evaporation is a process in which a liquid substance is converted into a gas by heating it, while leaving behind any solid components in the mixture. This method is used to separate a liquid and solid mixture based on their different boiling points.
What is a liquid and solid at the same time called?
A substance that exists as both a liquid and a solid at the same time is called a "solid-liquid mixture" or a "suspension." This occurs when a solid material is evenly dispersed throughout a liquid, creating a two-phase system.
