Why ducks cannot float in water containing too much detergent?

Ducks have a layer of natural oils on their feathers that repels water. When detergent is present in the water, it can break down this natural oil, causing the feathers to become waterlogged and losing their buoyancy. This makes it harder for ducks to float and regulate their body temperature.

Why is it that a needle may float on a clean water but sink when detergent is added to the water?

When a needle is placed on clean water, it can float due to surface tension, which is the cohesive force between water molecules at the surface. However, when detergent is added to the water, it reduces the surface tension by disrupting the cohesive forces between water molecules. This decrease in surface tension causes the needle to sink as the water can no longer support its weight.

Why does a rock sink in honey?

Rocks sink because they have a higher density than water. Water's density is 1.00. Feathers float because their density is lower than that.Rocks sink because they have a higher density that water.Thus they have a greater mass per unit volume which would mean that the force acting per unit volume due to gravitational force.
