Compressed air is MORE dense than expanded air. Density is the measure of an objects mass (measured in grams, kilograms, pounds etc) divided by its volume (cubic centimetres, litres, cubic feet, cubic yards etc).
D= m/V
Decreasing the volume of an object, or in this case a fixed amount of air, increases the density because the mass does not change but the volume gets smaller. Increasing the volume (expanded air) causes the density to decrease.
What else can I help you with?
Does compressed air sink more than non compressed air?
No, compressed air does not sink more than non-compressed air. In general, air behaves as a fluid, so its behavior is primarily governed by factors like temperature and pressure. Compressed air will tend to disperse and rise in a less dense environment, while non-compressed air will behave similarly.
Do thermocol balls float on water?
Yes, thermocol balls are made of expanded polystyrene foam, which is less dense than water. This is why thermocol balls will float on water.
Is the air inside of a balloon more dense or less dense than the air around it?
The air inside a balloon is less dense than the air around it. When the balloon is inflated, it contains less air molecules compared to the same volume of air outside the balloon, making it less dense.
How do you determine if a solid object is more dense or less dense than water?
To determine if a solid object is more dense or less dense than water, you compare their densities. The density of water is approximately 1 gram per cubic centimeter. If the solid object has a density greater than 1 g/cm^3, it is more dense than water and will sink. If its density is less than 1 g/cm^3, it is less dense than water and will float.
Is liquid water less dense then Ice?
No. Ice is less dense than water. Because ice is less dense it displaces less water and floats. Water is most dense at 4o C. any change in temperature, either up or down, lowers the density.
Does compressed air last longer in paintball?
No, Compressed air lasts much less than a comparably sized C02 tank. This is because CO2 is stored in liquid form, which is much more dense and takes up less space.
Is ice less dense or more dense than water?
no
How do reduce density of concrete?
Add ballast that is less dense than the gravel/sand in the concrete such as LECA (Light Expanded Clay Aggregate).
Does compressed air sink more than non compressed air?
No, compressed air does not sink more than non-compressed air. In general, air behaves as a fluid, so its behavior is primarily governed by factors like temperature and pressure. Compressed air will tend to disperse and rise in a less dense environment, while non-compressed air will behave similarly.
What is always less dense than solids?
Gases are less dense than solids.
What object is less dense than water?
A wooden block can be less dense than water.
Is water less or more dense than water?
Ice is less dense than water
Is ammonia more dense or less dense than air?
Ammonia is less dense than air at room temperature and pressure. This is why ammonia gas rises in air.
Can you make oil less dense than water?
Oil IS already less dense than water.
What is less dense water basalt iron or granite?
Water is less dense than any of the other materials listed.In order of density from least to highest:Water (least dense)GraniteBasaltIron (most dense)
Is saliva less dense than oil?
Yes, saliva is less dense than oil. Saliva is composed primarily of water, whereas oil is made up of non-polar molecules that are less dense than water.
Is less dense than?
Your question is hard to answer for you have not made it clear what you are asking. The term "is less dense than?" is not a question. If you were to ask "What is less dense than snow or water?" That would be a correct question.
