What else can I help you with?
How heavy water different from normal water?
Heavy water is about 11% denser than ordinary water, due to enriching of its deuterium isotopes.
Why can you run faster than you can swim?
Because water is heavy, Air is light.
When an object floats does it means it is heavy or light?
No. It means its less dense than water.
How much would heavy water weigh more than light water?
About 10% more for the same volume.
Why does heavy stones produce more waves than light stone?
Heavy stones produce more waves than light stones when thrown into water because they displace more water due to their weight. The displacement creates more ripples and waves on the surface of the water.
Why oil and vinegar are used to make pickle?
because oil have light wieght than water have heavy wieght
Why do American nuclear plants use light water instead of heavy water in the reactors?
Mainly I believe because the light water PWR was developed for submarines and as compact a reactor as possible was required. Since then of course it (and BWR's) have been up-sized very successfully. Enriched fuel can now be made much more easily and cheaply by centrifuges than by the diffusion method, so to obtain low enriched fuel is more economical. There is also MOX available, though I don't think the US uses this. See the discussion page as well
Is sodium heavy?
Sodium is considered a light metal in terms of its atomic weight compared to other elements. Its density is less than that of water, so it is not considered heavy in the context of everyday objects or materials.
Is a liquid heavy or light?
Well it can be either light of heavy depending on the amount of liquid and the density of liquid. 1 Litre of water - 1 Kilogram Oil is heavier than water; it sinks to the bottom For more information on liquid density and liquid weight search Google
How does water refract light?
Water refracts light because it has a different density than air. When light passes from air into water, it changes speed and direction, causing it to bend. This bending of light is known as refraction.
How Does light travel faster or slower in water than in air?
Light travels faster in air than in water because the density of air is lower than that of water. Light changes speed and direction when it enters a different medium due to the change in density, causing it to move slower in water.
What is specific gravity of crude oil?
Specific gravity of crude oil is how light or heavy it is compared to water. If the API gravity is less than 10 it will float in water.
