What else can I help you with?
What would happen if you mix oil sand and water in a cup?
Sand is at the bottom; water above and above water the oil.
When you add sand to water why does the sand settle at the bottom of the water?
Sand is heavier then water (denser) so it sinks. If you add oil to water, oil is less dense (lighter) than water so it floats.
How do you separate a mixture of sand salt and oil?
Pour the oil and sand in a glass of water. The sand will sink to the bottom, and the oil will float to the top of the water.
Does sand absorb oil the best?
Sand does not 'absorb' oil as it is none absorbant, however oil will coat the particles of sand thereby giving the impression of absorbing oil as this is what it appears to do when the sand is dry
What are examples of a heterogenous?
Oil and water. Sand and water.
Will putting sand in the oil fill tube ruin a car?
it will destroy the engine. Oil it to prevent friction, sand does the complete opposite your should try it and let us know what happons?
Which has the greatest solubility in water sand paper sugar oil?
Sugar has the greatest solubility in water among the options provided. Sand, paper, and oil do not dissolve in water.
How do you separate a mixture of oil water sugar and sand?
First, use a funnel to separate the sand and sugar from the oil and water mixture. Then, you can use a separation technique such as decantation or centrifugation to separate the oil from the water. Finally, you can use a process like distillation or filtration to separate the oil from the water.
Sand and oil a heterogeneous mixture?
Sand and oil can be separated by a technique called sedimentation and decantation. When mixed with water, sand will settle at the bottom due to its high density, while oil will float on top of the water. By carefully pouring off the oil layer, the two components can be separated.
Is a heterogeneous mixture oil and vinegar air vinegar in water sugar water?
Yes, a heterogeneous mixture is one in which the components are not uniformly distributed, like oil and vinegar. An example of a heterogeneous mixture is oil and vinegar salad dressing. Another example is sand and water, where the sand particles do not dissolve in the water.
Does oil work better then water in reducing friction between two surfaces?
Oil fills in the gaps (bumps on every surface at microscopic level) of machine parts to reduce friction, damage and heat. If there weren't any oil, the engine would only last minutes before it would melt down. The oil reduces friction but doesn't get rid of it completely....If this answer isn't very good, I'm sorry im just 12:)
Does oil mix with sand?
Yes, oil and sand do not mix well. Oil is less dense than water and tends to float on the surface, while sand is denser and tends to settle at the bottom. This separation is due to differences in their densities and compositions.
