Would an ice cube sink or float in corn oil?
The ice will float. It is less dense than the corn oil. But as the ice melts, the water, which is more dense than the corn oil, will find its way to the bottom of the glass. That's with the oil at room temperature.If the oil is hot, the ice cube will melt quickly. And if it is so hot the water vaporizes, it will cause steam bubbles that snap and pop and spray hot oil all over. Very dangerous.
Why did the ice cubes does not float in oil and alcohol?
