no, beacuse there is more sugars patick present in it so it floats

Which liquid floats on top water or kerosene?
When water and kerosene are mixed kerosene will float on top.
Is kerosene in water a suspension a solution or a colloid?
Kerosene is a colloid. :))
Why kerosene oil is not dissolved in water?
kerosene does not dissolve in water because it is a non polar liquid while water is polar so due to different nature they are insoluble. kerosene due to less density floats over water surface.
Does chalk dissolves in kerosene?
Water
Does kerosene oil dissolve in water?
No
Which liquid floats on top water or kerosene?
When water and kerosene are mixed kerosene will float on top.
Why kerosene float on water?
Kerosene is less dense than water.
A piece of ice is dropped in a beaker containing kerosene when ice melts level of kerosene will?
As kerosene is less dense than water so level of kerosene will fall
Why does an object float in water sinks in kerosene oil?
No. The ice does not float on oil or kerosene, it is because a kerosene is a non-polar solute whil the ice which came from H2o is a polar solute in which it contradicts with each other. When the ice melts, the ice become water, the water is denser than kerosene, so the kerosene floats for it has a lighter density while the water sinks for it has a denser density.
Can ship float on kerosene or not?
Yes
What happens if a ball made out of frozen kerosene is put into liquid kerosene does it float or sink?
it floats
Why does kerosene floats on water?
Kerosene floats on water for the same reason everything else floats. It weighs less than water and has buoyancy. If you put a drop of kerosene on water you will notice it forms a bubble, like a drop fill with air that is lighter than water. It is also an oil based product. Oil and water do not mix therefore the kerosene cannot mix with the water and therefore stays separate from the water. Oil slicks work this way too and kills anything near the surface of the water. In Pearl Harbor the USS Arizona has been leaking oil since it sank. Daily, oil blobs or drops rise to the surface and float on the water. So if you put kerosene on the bottom of a jar of water it will rise and float because it is less dense and lighter than water and will not mix with the water to weigh it back down to the bottom of the jar.Because it's immiscible with water and its density is lower than of water: it is lighter!
Why kerosene floats on water?
kerosene floats on water because kerosene is less denser than water
Why do the objects that sink in water float on kerosene?
I'd be surprised if you could ever see that happen. The density of kerosene is between 0.78 to 0.81 g/cm3 , so it ought to work just the other way around.
Why is it not advisable to pour water on a kerosene caused fire?
Pouring water on a kerosene fire may cause splashes of hot/burning kerosene and water to splatter, due to the fact that kerosene is not miscible in water.
Is kerosene is denser than water?
Kerosene is less dense than water.
Are kerosene and oil soluble?
No. Kerosene is an organic compound. and water is a non-organic compound. (kerosene : non-polar Water : polar). As water is a polar solvent kerosene is not soluble in it. but kerosene is soluble in ethyl alcohol which is a non-polar solvent.
