Most containers are not filled to capacity. Head room is left to allow for expansion as the temperature varies. For instance, a 12 ounce cola can holds more than 12 ounces when filled to capacity. Some will recall the bulging tops on cola cans that have been frozen. So a milk container, while it contains a litre of milk and is called one litre has a capacity greater than one litre when completely filled.
Gas is very losely packed and its molecules are totally far apart and thus has very less force of attraction and more intermolecular spaces hence gas fill the whole of its container.
1 L of water is heavier than 1 L of ice. This is because ice is less dense than water, therefore the a particular volume of ice will weigh less than same volume of water.
It depends on the substance. The 'gram' is a unit of mass, whereas the 'liter' is a unit of volume, which could be a bottle of a certain size. For different substances, it takes more or less mass to fill the bottle. If the liter is full of water, then it holds 1,000 grams. If the liter is full of lead, then it holds nearly 12,000 grams. If you try to pick them both up, you notice the difference right away.
less than 1 liter
Objects/substances that are more dense sink relative to objects/substances that are less dense. Pour the oil and water into the one container contemporaneously. Then wait. The less dense substance will rise to the top.
No, compost is bulky and will have air-spaces. So less compost can be packed into the litre container. Water is a liquid and will fill the container completely, and will be heavier.
Because there's less space to fill up so the water goes up higher to fill up that space, and fill the shape of the container.
a liter
No. Oil is less dense than water, so 1 liter of oil will weigh less than 1 liter of water.
Just fill a container with water. The aluminum is light, and less dense than the water, so it will float to the top of the container. The lead is heavy, and more dense than the water, so it will sink to the bottom of the container. You can then separate the two easily.
Water expands when it freezes and the container is less flexible at lower temperatures.
Gas is very losely packed and its molecules are totally far apart and thus has very less force of attraction and more intermolecular spaces hence gas fill the whole of its container.
it is displacing more water imagine putting a rock into a small container of water. the container appears to have more water because it was displaced
Because the stone weighs more than the same volume of water. If you fill a container to the brim with water, then put a stone into the water and catch the water that overflows from the container, that overflowed water will weigh less than the stone does. If you did the same thing with a cork, and used a pin to push the cork under the surface of the water, the overflowed water would weigh more than the cork.
yes it can
Oil is less dense than water, which is why a film of oil will float on top of water.
A liter of pure water weighs at most 1 kilogram (at 4 degrees Centigrade). This is about 2.2 pounds. Water at higher temperatures is less dense and will weigh slightly less.
