Corn syrup because corn syrup is denser than water.
Corn syrup
Corn syrup is the most dense. Imagine pouring each into a graduated cylinder the corn syrup would sink to the bottom
Corn syrup has more density: about 1.360 g/ml. Vegetable oil is about 0.89 g/ml.
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 is the solute and solvent in corn syrup
No, corn syrup is thicker than water so it will stay at the bottom. Example: you pour a glass of water and decide which liquid is the thickest for a Science project. So you try it out and corn syrup will most likely end up on the bottom depending on the other liquids used. But Corn Syrup beats water 10/10 times
Molasses because its thicker. Thicker means it has a higher viscosity.
Firstly there is no such thing as floating higher; something either floats or it doesn't. Buoyancy (pronounced boy-an-see) on the other hand, describes the ability or tendency of an object to float in a liquid. Objects float in a liquid when they are less dense than the liquid. For example an ice cube will float in both water and corn syrup because it is less dense than both. The ice cube will have greater buoyancy in corn syrup because corn syrup is more dense than water.
water molecules are smaller than corn syrup. the membrane allows a certain size of molecules.
This is salt water.
Because water has lower viscosity (resistance to flow) than syrup does.
