Question

The density of liquids is generally ________ than the density of solids.

Answer 1

1. The density of a body gives an idea about how closer the atoms are packed in a body.
2. Closer the atoms of a body, the more is the density of the body and vice versa.
3. In liquids, the atoms are very much away from each other as compared to solids and hence the density of liquids is less than solids.

Hence, the density of liquids is generally less than the density of solids.
