Because a regular coke is more dense and has more sugar. A diet coke has more sugar
Other way around: diet beverages are less dense and float, the good kind (with sugar) is more dense and sinks.
No, it will float in vinegar or salt though. Coke is not dense enough to make an egg float.
The Diet Coke can floats because the sugar they put in regular Coke has been substituted by a lighter (less dense) substance (a healthier type of sweetness). The sugar is much denser that the artificial sweetener, so the Coke sinks and the Diet Coke floats.
Because their density is less than the density of coke. And if that's not true of the object, then it sinks.
it is actually the other way around diet coke sinks because it is less dense than water and regular is more dence so it sinks
Simple, the density of diet coke is not 1. Otherwise it won't float.
Diet coke floats because Floating occurs because floating objects displace, or push aside, a certain amount of liquid. If an object displaces more than its weight in liquid, it floats; otherwise it sinks. Density (the mass per unit of volume) determines how much liquid is displaced. Density is usually compared to water, which is assigned a density of 1. Materials sink if (like regular Coke) they are more dense than water, while less-dense materials, like Diet Coke, float.
You would probably have to use salt water
When it sinks.
Yes, a lego can float in coke
Anything with a density less than 1. The equasion is Mass divided by volume. Diet coke will float, but plain coke won't. (Makes one cool experiment!)
Because it is less dense because of the different type and amount of sweetener in the Diet Coke. Sugar in a water solution creates a more dense liquid than does an artificial sweetener when the same degree of sweetness is acquired. Diet Coke floats while regular Coca-Cola sinks!
