If you filled a 1L bottle with water and another 1L bottle with rubbing alcohol, which bottle would feel heavier? Use your data to thoroghly explain why. The rubbing alcohol would be heavier because water's density is 1.0, and rubbing alcohol's density is much more than that. Right???

What is of less density than rubbing alcohol?

Rubbing alcohol is less dense than water. Therefore, any substance with a lower density than water would also be less dense than rubbing alcohol. Examples include oil and gas.


Is glycerin less dense than water and cooking oil?

No, it is more dense than water and cooking oil.


Is oil less dense then water?

Kerosene and turpentine are less dense than engine oil. So is water and rubbing alcohol and other common liquids.


What type of liquid has a close density to vegetable oil?

Rubbing alcohol is less dense, it will float on top ofvegetableoil.


Will objects float better in rubbing alcohol or water?

Objects will float better in rubbing alcohol than in water because rubbing alcohol has a lower density than water. This means that objects will displace less liquid in rubbing alcohol, making it easier for them to float.


Why would an object float in water but sink in rubbing alcohol?

An object will float in water if its density is less than that of water. Rubbing alcohol has a lower density than water, so an object that sinks in rubbing alcohol likely has a higher density than the rubbing alcohol. This difference in density causes the object to sink in rubbing alcohol but float in water.


Does rubbing alcohol or pepsi evaporate?

At RT, rubbing alcohol would evaporate in a quicker time as its boiling point is less than that of water.


Why does the ice cube sinks in alcohol?

An ice cube sinks in alcohol because alcohol is less dense than water. The ice cube, being made of frozen water, has a higher density than alcohol, causing it to sink in the less dense liquid.


Why does ice float on water but sinks in methylated spirits?

The density of rubbing alcohol is 75% that of water. Thus ice (frozen water which is roughly equal in density to liquid water), sinks in rubbing alcohol since it has more mass per cubic millimeter than the alcohol does. In order to float, the object would have to be less dense than the alcohol per cubic space.


What liquid is less dense than alcohol?

hmmm, water??? lol, joking!


What happens if you mix chlorine bleach and rubbing alcohol?

Answer#1The alcohol, being less dense will float on top. They do not react. This answer is nonsense. Alcohol and bleach will mix, and they react, but not in a way that will kill you. Alcohol is less dense than water or bleach (water plus sodium hypochlorite) but alcohol and water do mix... mixed drinks, anyone?


How can an ice cube float in a glass of water?

Ice cubes float in water because they are less dense than liquid water. When water freezes, it forms a rigid crystalline structure that spaces out the water molecules, making the ice cube less dense and causing it to float on the denser liquid water.
