Will arsenic float or sink in pure water?
Arsenic is denser than water, so it will sink in pure water.
How does iron and sulphur mixture float in water?
When iron and sulfur are mixed together, they do not form a stable compound. Instead, they remain separate particles in the mixture. When this mixture is added to water, the individual iron and sulfur particles are denser than water, causing them to sink rather than float.
Which element will sink in both water and mercury?
Any element denser than 1bout 13.5 g/cm^3 will sink in both water and mercury. Such elements include gold, platinum, tungsten, osmium, and uranium among others.
Will tar float or sink in water?
Tar is denser than water, so it will sink in water.
Does chloroform float or sink in water?
Chloroform is denser than water, so it will sink in water.
Does iron sulfide sink?
Iron sulfide (FeS) has a higher density than water, so it will sink in water.
Will iron pyrite float?

Will a piece of iron float in water?
No, a piece of iron will sink in water because its density is greater than that of water.
Would iron fillings sink or float?
Iron fillings are denser than water, so they would sink when placed in water. Since water has a lower density than iron fillings, the fillings will displace the water and sink to the bottom.
Why does a wooden cork float in water but an iron nail sink?

Will arsenic float or sink in pure water?

How well do different materials sink or float in water?
The sinking or floating of materials in water depends on their density compared to water. Materials with higher density than water will sink, while those with lower density will float. For example, metals like iron sink in water, while plastics and wood float.
