Best Answer

does water sink or float in what?

whether one solution "floats" or "sinks" when added to a 2nd solution depends largely on the relative densities of the two solutions. Generally the denser of the two will "sink", though other factors, such as polarity, come into play in certain situations (eg, mixing oil and alcohol).

If water is mixed with oil the water will sink below the oil because it is heavier than the oil.
