Which is denser a liquid or solid why?

Liquids are usually less dense than solids but more dense than air. Temperature can change a liquid's density. For example, increasing the temperature of water causes the molecules to spread farther apart. The farther apart the molecules are, the less dense the water is.

your answer would be “dry”

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
