Which has more density water alcohol salt water or corn syrup?
Corn syrup is the most dense. Imagine pouring each into a graduated cylinder the corn syrup would sink to the bottom
Why does syrup have more density than vegetable oil?
Corn syrup has more density: about 1.360 g/ml. Vegetable oil is about 0.89 g/ml.
Why does water float on corn syrup?
Water floats on corn syrup because it is less dense than corn syrup. If you want a more complete understanding look below: Let us imagine a small volume element of water(lets assume it to be a sphere) with a volume of 1 cm^3. If you place this sphere of water in corn syrup there are two forces acting on it: the force of gravity and the bouyant force. The force of gravity of the sphere of water = mass*g where g is the acceleration due to gravitythe mass of the sphere is equal to the density of water times the volume(which we set before to be equal to 1 cm^3. The bouyant force as described by Archimedes is equal to the opposite of the force exerted by the force of gravity on a similar volume element of the surrounding substance. This is more easily understood as:Fb=(mass of displaced fluid)*gFb=(density of corn syrup)*volume*gFb=(density of corn syrup)*(1cm^3)*g So the force up on the volume element of water is equal to Fb where the force down is equal to the force of weight due to gravity. In this example we can see that the force up is greater because: Fb/Fg=(density of corn syrup)/(density of water) > 1 because the density of corn syrup is greater than the density of water. Therefore there is a larger force up than downwards which is why water when placed in corn syrup will move upwards. Hope that helps.
Does water have more density than corn syrup?

A jar contains 30 mL of glycerin and 60 mL of corn syrup. which liquid is the top layer?
corn syrup's density is more so it will float on top of the glycerin
what has more velocity corn syrup water orange juice or milk?
Molasses because its thicker. Thicker means it has a higher viscosity.
Does maple syrup have more density than water?
yes
What has more density water oil or syrup?
of coarse oil
Explain why the density of thick syrup is greater than the density of water?
The syrup is more dense because its molecules are closer together.
What liquid has more density than water?
Maple Syrup is an example.
What is a candy that has no corn syrup?
There are several candies that have no corn syrup. The candies that are hard tend to not have corn syrup. The soft candies would be more likely to have the sweetener, because corn syrup is not hard at room temperature.
What is more dense than water?
Lots of thing but some examples are corn syrup and honey
