Why does water float on corn syrup?
Water floats on corn syrup because it is less dense than corn syrup. If you want a more complete understanding look below: Let us imagine a small volume element of water(lets assume it to be a sphere) with a volume of 1 cm^3. If you place this sphere of water in corn syrup there are two forces acting on it: the force of gravity and the bouyant force. The force of gravity of the sphere of water = mass*g where g is the acceleration due to gravitythe mass of the sphere is equal to the density of water times the volume(which we set before to be equal to 1 cm^3. The bouyant force as described by Archimedes is equal to the opposite of the force exerted by the force of gravity on a similar volume element of the surrounding substance. This is more easily understood as:Fb=(mass of displaced fluid)*gFb=(density of corn syrup)*volume*gFb=(density of corn syrup)*(1cm^3)*g So the force up on the volume element of water is equal to Fb where the force down is equal to the force of weight due to gravity. In this example we can see that the force up is greater because: Fb/Fg=(density of corn syrup)/(density of water) > 1 because the density of corn syrup is greater than the density of water. Therefore there is a larger force up than downwards which is why water when placed in corn syrup will move upwards. Hope that helps.
What happens when you put a egg with no shell that's just been in corn syrup into distilled water?
the eggs mass will change the egg will have more mass than before
Is corn a nouns?
Yes, corn is a noun; a singular or mass, common, concrete noun. The noun corn as a blemish on the foot can be singular or plural; 'a corn' or 'two corns'. The noun corn as the vegetable is a mass noun; 'a field of corn', 'an ear of corn', 'a bowl of corn', or 'a kernel of corn'.
What happen to egg is placed in corn syrup?
It shrinks into a smaller size. When an egg is placed in syrup the water moves out and causes a decrease in its mass. This is a result of Osmosis occurring, since water moves to higher solute.
What happens to the corn syrup when an egg without shell is put in to it?
the egg decreases in mass because the water moves out of it through the membrane, this happens because water goes from low high to concentration. this is called osmosis.
What unit do you use to measure corn syrup?
The answer depends on what characteristic is being measured: its mass, volume, viscosity, and so on.
What boils quicker hot water or cold water?
water because when they make maple syrup it is 95% water and to make the syrup better they boil off the water
What is the density of 10 ml of corn syrup that has a mass of 10.8 grams?
density=m/v density=10.8/10.3 density=1.05g/cm3
Why does vetcable oil float on water?
Vegetable oil floats on water because it is less dense than water. Density is the mass of a substance divided by its volume. Since the mass of vegetable oil is less than the same volume of water, it displaces less water and floats on top.
The mass of some corn plants at the end of the growth. Was 6 tons per acre most of this mass was produced from?
water from the soil and and carbon dioxide from the air.
Why is honey more dense than corn syrup?
Seriously? I mean like for real, is this a joke? Of course it's denser, just think about it, you can swish your hand around in one the other is dense goopy liquid. No disrespect.
The mass of some corn plants at the end of their growth period was 6 tons per acre Most of this mass was produced from?
water from the soil and and carbon dioxide from the air.
