What order do you put water oil and mercury?
Water, oil, and mercury are arranged in increasing order of density. Water is less dense than oil, which is less dense than mercury. So the order would be water (less dense), oil, and then mercury (most dense).
Is Jupiter less dense than water?
No, the only planet in the solar system less dense than water is Saturn.
Which planets in the solar system are less dense than water?
Saturn and Jupiter are less dense than water. Saturn's density is about 0.69 g/cm^3, while Jupiter's density is about 1.33 g/cm^3, making them less dense than water, which has a density of 1 g/cm^3.
Is the earth moon less dense than mercury?
Yes, the Earth's moon is less dense than Mercury. Mercury is one of the densest planets in the solar system, with a density about 5.4 times that of water, whereas the Moon has a density about 3.3 times that of water.
Would water or liquid mercury float?
Water floats when it is turned into ice, because in this form it is less dense (it crystallizes, and the structure expands). It also can float in combinations of liquids, for example, it is less dense than liquid mercury, but more dense than oil, so it would 'float' on the mercury. Liquid mercury is very dense, and doesn't usually float on things.
Why iron nail floats on mercury but sinks on water.?
Iron has a higher density than water, so it sinks in water; but is less dense than mercury so it floats.
What liquid is LESS dense than wood?
Ice! Some wood is also less dense than water. Styrofoam and some plastics are also less dense than water. There is an EXTREMELY simple experiment to test for this. Any object that floats when placed in water is less dense than the water it is in.And of course sperm.
Why does iron float in a pool of mercury while gold sinks?
It is function of the density of the three metals. The density of iron is less than that of mercury, but the density of gold is greater. Density of iron: 7.86 g/cm3 Density of mercury: 13.53 g/cm3 Density of gold: 19.3 g/cm3 Anything more dense than a liquid will sink in that liquid, and anything less dense will float. For comparison, the density of water is only 1 g/cm3, so all three would sink in a pool of water. Styrofoam for instance is less dense than water and so it floats in water.
Does dense water sink or rise in comparison to less dense water?
Dense water sinks in comparison to less dense water.
What liquid is less viscous yet heavier than water?
Mercury is a liquid that is less viscous but heavier than water. Mercury is a dense liquid metal at room temperature, making it heavier than water, which is less viscous than water due to its lower viscosity.
How dense is earth in relation to the other bodies in the solar system?
Extremely. None of the other planets is as dense as Earth (Mercury is close). Venus is just a little less than Mercury, Mars is about 2/3 as dense as Earth, and the outer planets are much less dense... 1/3 or less (Saturn is about 1/6).
Is water less or more dense than water?
Ice is less dense than water
