What Oil floats on water because it is denser true or false?
Oil floats on water because water is denser than oil.
When poured into water in a glass jar oil floats to the top?
The oil has less density
Is an oil with the density 0.9 denser than water?
No, relative density is relative to water. Therefore, oil with a relative density of 0.9 is 90% the density of water. Which is why oil floats on top of water. Put both in a glass to see.
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.
Does water have greater density than oil?
No, water has more density than oil. If something denser than water(Eg=Iron) is dropped to water, it sinks, while less denser will float. Oil floats on water. Really I've tested it
Does oil or water have a lower density?
Oil floats on water, and has a lower density.
Oil floats on to of water because?
Because:1) It has less density than water, and2) it doesn't mix with water.
Why does water float on oil?
The oils have low density as compared to water and oils are non polar organic compounds while water is a polar compound, so oil can not mix with water and floats on waters surface.
Is the density of water more then the density of oil?
Cooking oil has a density of 910 to 930 kilograms per cubic meter or 0.91 to 0.93 grams per cubic centimeter. Therefore it is lighter than water and floats on it.
Why does the oil in some salad dressing rise to the top of the bottle?
It floats because the density of water is bigger than the oil.

Does oil have a density or water?
Oil and water each have densities. Oil is less dense than water, so it floats above it.
