What else can I help you with?
Would the mass on mercury float on water?
Mercury would not float on water. This is because the density of Mercury (5427kg/m3) is greater than the density of water (1000kg/m3).
Would Mercury float or sink?
In water mercury would sink very quickly as it is very heavy. Keep in mind that part of mercury dissolves in water and is extremely poisonous.
Would gasoline turpentine or mercury settle to the bottom when mixed with water?
Gasoline and turpentine are less dense than water and would float on the surface, while mercury is denser than water and would sink to the bottom when mixed with water.
Is there water on mercury yes or no?
nope it would be impossible
If water was used in a sphygmomanometer instead of mercury what would be the systolic and diastolic blood pressure?
Mercury's density is around 13.54 x that of water, so the pressures (in mm of water) would be 13.54 x what they are for mercury - 100 mm Hg would be around 1354 mm H2O
Do wood in Mercury float?
No, wood would not float in mercury. Mercury is a dense liquid metal, much denser than water, so wood would sink in it.
What volume of water would weigh the same as 150cm3 of mercury?
13.534 gram per cubic centimeter is the mercury density Accordingly, 150 cubic cm mercury = 150/13.534 gram = 11.0832 grams of mercury. Assuming fresh water at room temperature of density 1 gm/cubic centimeter, then water volume is 11.0832/1 = 11.0832 cubic cm.
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).
How would it change if a object moved from water to mercury?
Not Much
Why would a water barometer have to be 13.6 times taller than a mercury barometer?
A barometer using water,would need to be 13.6 times taller than a mercury barometer to obtain the same pressure difference. This is because mercury is 13.6 times more dense than water.
What search criteria would be used to find the lines within the MERCURY file about clients?
grep clients Mercury
What would you measure water temperature with?
A mercury thermometer (but not a medical one!)
