What solid is an exception to the rule that solids are more dense than liquids?
The best example is ice, which is the solid form of the liquid we call water. Water's solid form (ice) floats on its liquid form, as we know.
Is an ice cube more dense or less dense than liquid water?
Less dense. For most substances, the solid form is more dense than the liquid form; water is a notable exception.Less dense.

Does frozen water increase in size when melted?
Yes, frozen water (ice) is less dense than liquid water, so it actually increases in size when melted. This is why ice cubes float in liquid water.
What substances are less dense when in a solid state than they are in a liquid state?
Oh, dude, you're talking about water! Yeah, water is like the rebel of the chemistry world. Most substances get all cozy and closer together when they freeze, but not water. It's like, "Nah, I'm gonna spread out and be less dense as ice." So yeah, water is that cool kid who breaks all the rules in the solid vs. liquid density game.
Are properties of water more dense as a solid than a liquid?
Water is less dense as a solid. To understand this just think a constant volume of water. Freezing water causes the volume to expand and the ice solid floats on the liquid water. Therefore ice is LESS dense than liquid water.
How do you know when solid and a liquid form a liquid?
When the solid was frozen. e.g Water + ice = water.
Which has greater density liquid water or frozen water?
Solid water has greater density than liquid water in general, assuming there is not much dissolved oxygen to cause voids. A solid will always be more dense than a liquid, if it freezes in a manner that does not allow for voids.
What is the process of water to solid?
from liquid water to frozen water
Can a fluid b a liquid amd solid?
water can be a liquid and also a solid when frozen

Why is frozen water so unique?
Water is the only substance that the solid form is less dense than the liquid. This means that it floats. This is very useful because otherwise, the whole ocean would be frozen!
Ice floats in water does frozen HNO3 float in liquid HNO3?
Besides water, a substance in solid form is more dense. At the least dense substance floats, HN03 will not float in liquid HN03. ;)
What is an example of a solid that Is less dense than a liquid?
Solid water, ice, is less dense than its liquid state. This is essential for aquatic life. Since ice is less dense than liquid water, it floats to the top of of the water. This insulates the water beneath the ice, allowing the water beneath the ice to remain liquid. For other substances, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state.
How do water's relative densities an a solid a liquid deffer from that most other substances?
Solid water, ice, is less dense than liquid water and floats on top. The solid state of other substances is more dense than the liquid state and will sink in the liquid.
What happens to water when frozen that doesen't happen to any other liquid?
When most liquids change to their solid state, they become denser. However, water freezes and the resulting solid, ice, is less dense than it's liquid state (aka ice floats over liquid water)
Can a solid be more dense than a liquid?
Yes, a solid can be more dense than a liquid. Density is defined as mass per unit volume, so a solid with a higher mass per unit volume than a liquid will be more dense. An example is comparing ice (solid) to water (liquid), where ice is more dense than liquid water.
