Students will be able to explain that the density of a liquid has to do with how heavy it is for the sample size. Students will also be able to explain that if a liquid is more dense than water, it ...

The same mass of liquid will have slightly greater volume than the solid. As density equals \(\frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\), the liquid will have slightly lower density. The density of solid ...

Water is unique. It is one of the only substances that can exist in nature as a solid, liquid and gas at the same time under ambient conditions (think ...

If measured in centimeters, the answer will be in cubic centimeters (cm³). Mass is measured in grams. The units for density will be g/cm³. Arrangement of atoms in different metals is similar.

The difference is mostly due to the fact that air is a gas and the water is a liquid, because density depends a lot on the state of matter. In a solid, the particles are tightly packed ...
