the intermolecular attractionsis account for this behaivour of honey.
It is due to the difference in viscosity . Honey is more viscous than water due to strong inter molecular forces. On the other hand water is less viscous than honey . Therefore, it's easier to pour water as compared to honey . :-)
Water and wax do not go together. Think of the reason why people wax their cars. If the car gets wet the wax allows the water to form droplets and slide off. The wax and the water do not mix. Another way to think of it is floating candles. If the wax dissolved in the water then it wouldn't be a floating candle anymore. So my guess is that it is more soluble in kerosene.
Honey is a very concentrated solution, mainly of sugar. Such solutions become thinner (less viscous) when warmed and thicker (more viscous) when cooled. So the cold honey will be more difficult to pour or spread on your toast. The same would apply to engine oil. When the engine is cool the oil will be more viscous and tend to stick to engine components. When the engine runs the oil becomes less viscous and is easier to pump and splash about in the sump, so giving better lubrication to moving parts such as crankshaft bearings and big ends.
No it is lighter then water that is why it floats on top.

Honey :)
viscous, and yes, it is a thicker liquidthan diesel
no honey is not dense than oil because oil has grease in it which makes it thinner but honey is too thick to be more dense than oil Another Answer: Honey is more dense than water. Water will float on honey. Try it. Is oil is more dense than water. Take some cooking oil and pour it on water. Which floats on the other? If the oil floats on the water then honey is more dense than honey. If the water floats on the oil then you will need to see if the oil floats on the honey or if the honey floats on the oil.
From thickest to thinnest: lava, tar, honey, then water.
kerosene
Viscosity has to do with the thickness of a fluid. Honey is more viscous than water for example. Blood becomes more and more viscous as it dries.

Because it is more viscous.
Because it is more viscous.
Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow. For example, honey is more viscous than water.
