Is mayonaise a solid or a liquid?

Mayonnaise is an oil in water emulsion.  It is a liquid with  thixotropic or pseudo-plastic rheology.  These terms mean that the viscosity drops with increasing shear rate.  This means you can spread it but it won't fall off when you turn the bread upside down.

Syrup is a substance whereby solids (sugar, salt, minerals, etc.) have already been dissolved.  The syrup is most commonly water base, and as such, will dissolve in water.

It is sometimes said that glass in very old churches is thicker at the bottom than at the top because glass is a liquid, and so over several centuries it has flowed towards the bottom.  This is not true.  In Mediaeval times panes of glass were often made by the Crown glass process.  A lump of molten glass was rolled, blown, expanded, flattened and finally spun into a disc before being cut into panes.  The sheets were thicker towards the edge of the disc and were usually installed with the heavier side at the bottom.  Other techniques of forming glass panes have been used but it is only the relatively recent float glass processes which have produced good quality flat sheets of glass.\n\nTo answer the question "Is glass liquid or solid?" we have to understand its thermodynamic and material properties.\n\nThermodynamics of glass\n\nThere is still much about the molecular physics and thermodynamics of glass that is not well understood, but we can give a general account of what is thought to be the case.\n\nMany solids have a crystalline structure on microscopic scales.  The molecules are arranged in a regular lattice.  As the solid is heated the molecules vibrate about their position in the lattice until, at the melting point, the crystal breaks down and the molecules start to flow.  There is a sharp distinction between the solid and the liquid state, that is separated by a first order phase transition, i.e. a discontinuous change in the properties of the material such as density.  Freezing is marked by a release of heat known as the heat of fusion. \n...\nConclusion\n\nThere is no clear answer to the question "Is glass solid or liquid?".  In terms of molecular dynamics and thermodynamics it is possible to justify various different views that it is a highly viscous liquid, an amorphous solid, or simply that glass is another state of matter which is neither liquid nor solid.  The difference is semantic.  In terms of its material properties we can do little better.  There is no clear definition of the distinction between solids and highly viscous liquids.  All such phases or states of matter are idealisations of real material properties.  Nevertheless, from a more common sense point of view, glass should be considered a solid since it is rigid according to every day experience.  The use of the term "supercooled liquid" to describe glass still persists, but is considered by many to be an unfortunate misnomer that should be avoided.  In any case, claims that glass panes in old windows have deformed due to glass flow have never been substantiated.  Examples of Roman glassware and calculations based on measurements of glass visco-properties indicate that these claims cannot be true.  The observed features are more easily explained as a result of the imperfect methods used to make glass window panes before the float glass process was invented.

Solid. Most elements at standard atmospheric temperature and pressure are solids. Some of the non-metals are gases, but only Mercury and Bromine are liquids at STP.\n\nEDIT: Gloo-gal, why answer if you don't know or don't care?

viscosity is the stickness/thickness of liquid. It is a constant for each liquid in relation to its temperature because when you heat stuff up, it flows a little better.\n\nexample: if you heat up honey it goes from being really viscous to flowing better than water at near boling temperatures. You can also look at metals this way too, if you met metal, the hotter the metal, the faster it will flow to where  ever you are trying to get it to go. Lava is a good example as well.

i think it is exactly the same but with mayonaise

Milk is a mixture of water with various proteins, fats, and other substances.\n\nCoke is a mixture of water, sugar, flavorings, and carbon dioxide gas.\n\ngasoline is a mixture of various hydrocarbons such as heptane and octane, and additives\n\nThe atmosphere is a mixture of gasses  nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, small amounts of other gasses and possibly water vapor, water droplets (clouds), and solid particles (dust).

Yes, Glass is considered both a solid and a liquid. That is why old glass windows are thicker on the bottom then on the top.

less dense... it is common sense the density of substances go from solid liquid to gas (most dense to least) neon is a gas thus it would be less dense than water which is a liquid

Solid.  If the temperature is below the melting point, then it will be a solid.  Unless you want to get into changing pressures, or something.

The crust and mantle are generally solid.  The inner and outer core are molten rock and metal...very dense, but still liquid.

It's a colloid in the form of gas in a solid.

Density is a function of two properties of matter- mass and volume.  So you're looking for a material that packs a lot of mass into a small space.  Probably the first hurdle the material has to clear is that it has to pe denser than itself in liquid form.  This is true of most materials that can legitimately have both a solid and liquid form, as the particles "pack in" closer together when they solidify and "spread out" as they liquify.  However, there are exceptions, like water, where the solid form is less dense than the liquid form (which is why ice floats).\n\nGenerally, as you move further up the periodic table into higher atomic numbers, elements get more dense (though exceptions certainly exist).  If you go very far up into the periodic table into say the Actinides (Uranium for example) you get into solids (largely unstable and radioactive, but solids nonetheless) that are extremely dense.  In theory however, at a high enough temperature you could possibly go further up the periodic table, heat the material to its melting point, and create a liquid that could potentially be more dense.
