No, hexane is less dense than ethanol- hexane has a density of 0.6548g/mL and ethanol has a density of 0.789g/mL, so hexane will float on top of ethanol.

Will ice sink or float in ethanol?
It sinks. Pure ethanol has a density of about 0.7, so ice is more dense than the ethanol.
Is benzene more soluble in hexane than glycerol?
yes
Why is potassium manganate 7 more soluble in hexane than water?
it is more soluble as hexane is non polar and potassium manganate is also non polar substances with like polarities mix so potassium manganate is more soluble in hexane
Is 2-naphthol soluble in ethanol?
yes, it is much more soluble in ethanol than in water.
How can you determine weather a solid substance is more dense or less dence than water?
put them both in a tub of water and if one floats its not as dense as the other if it sinks its more dense
Is heptane more soluble in hexane than ethanol?
of course
What is liquids are more dense than water?
Oil's, methanol, ethanol, and isopropyl
Is hexane or methanol more polar?
Ethanol is polar, as the non-polar OH group still exerts enough force over the rest of the chain to make the entire hydrocarbon dissolve. This trend continues with alcohols with one carbon (methanol) two carbons (ethanol) three carbons (propanol) and four carbons (butanol). However, butanol is only polar when the OH functional group is attached to a secondary carbon (i.e. butan-2-ol) Hexane is always non-polar, as it is a symmetrical hydrocarbon (like most of them) which means that all forces cancel each other out. So ethanol is more polar than hexane.
Hexane solube in water?
Yes. If you put water and hexane in a beaker or a container together, the hexane will be on top of the water. One way to see this is to dye the water. They do not mix because water is polar and the hexane cannot dissolve in it. It is on top because, guess why? It is less dense than water. That is why anything floats on water... it is less dense! Hope that answers your question!
Will ice sink or float in ethanol?
It sinks. Pure ethanol has a density of about 0.7, so ice is more dense than the ethanol.
How does ice float on top of water?
Ice is less dense than water so it floats. ex. ice is more dense than ethanol so it sinks.
What 5 substances can be classified as liquid and flammable?
There are far more than five. Ethanol, methanol, 2-propanol, pentane, and hexane are five extremely common examples.
Which has more density vegetable oil or ethanol?
The vegetable oil is more dense than ethanol. Vegetable has a density of around 0.9 g/cm3, which varies very slightly depending on the oil. The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/cm3
How do the densities of pure substances differ from the densities of mixtures?
There's no correlation between the composition of a substance and its density. Pure ethanol is less dense than potato-leek soup, but pure mercury is more dense. Potato-leek soup is less dense than pure mercury, but concrete is more dense.
Is alchohol denser than rubbing alchohol?
Pure ethanol is less dense.
Is there a liquid with less density than ice?
Ethanol is less dense than water ice.
Is ethanol more volatile than acetone?
Acetone is more volatile than ethanol.
