Question
refer to the image below. 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 than liquid b.
Step1: Recall density - buoyancy relationship
An object sinks in a less - dense liquid and floats in a more - dense liquid.
Step2: Analyze the position of the solid object
The solid object is floating on Liquid B and sinking in Liquid A. So, the solid object is less dense than Liquid B and more dense than Liquid A.
