Question

question 5 of 12 sci_phys_cfa2_propertiesofma... submit test liquid b (blue) which statement best describes the densities of the items in the container? the solid object is more dense than the liquids because its particles are more compact. the solid object is more dense than liquid a but less dense than liquid b. liquid b is the least dense of all the items in the container. the solid object is less dense than liquid a and more dense that liquid b

Explanation:

Density determines whether an object sinks or floats in a liquid. A more - dense object sinks in a less - dense liquid. If the solid object is at the bottom and Liquid B is on top of Liquid A, the solid is more dense than both liquids as denser substances sink to the bottom. Particles being more compact is a characteristic of higher density.

Answer:

The solid object is more dense than the liquids because its particles are more compact.
