No, not any substance, but some, and here's why. Methanol has a density of 0.79g. If you put something in the methanol, say wood (oak), that weighs 0.89g, which is more, it will sink. It all depends on if it weighs more or less than the methanol. If it weighs more, it will sink, If it weighs less, it will float.

∙ 13y agoWater has a density of about 1 g/cc.
Water Ice has a density of .9767 g/cc and is less than water so it floats in water.
Methanol has a density of .7918 g/cc. It is less than ice, so ice (water) would sink in methanol.
I'm having troubles finding the density of solid (frozen) methanol, but I presume it would also sink.

∙ 8y agoNo. Methanol is less dense than water, so the opposite would happen: the methanol would float on the water. However, since methanol is fully soluble in water, it would not be long before the two became fully mixed.

∙ 11y agoAs methanol has a density of .7918 g/mL, it has a lower density than ice. As the substance with the higher density sinks, ice will sink in methanol.

Ash wood varies from about 536 to 710 kg / m3.
The wood would float.

What compounds are found in methanol?
Methanol is an alcohol and consists of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen its formula is CH3OH
Is methanol a solid?
No, at room temperature methanol is a liquid.
Is Methanol a nonelectrolyte?
Methanol is a nonelectrolyte because it is so weak it is not considered to be an electrolyte. Methanol is too weak to pass on electrons.
Will methanol melt ice?
It depends on the temperature of the methanol. If the methanol is warmer than 32F (0C) it will melt the ice until the methanol reaches 32. Methanol can be less than 32F and still liquid in which case it won't melt the ice. It's about heat transfer not material.
What is the compound formed after plunging a heated copper wire into a methanol?
It depends on what you added to the methanol before you put the heated copper wire into the methanol. The heated copper wire acted as a catalyst to speed up the reaction between the methanol and the other substance. Copper itself does not react with methanol.
