Diet coke is less dense than regular coke.
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.
yes, because coca cola is a lot more dense than diet coke because it has so less chemicals than diet coke
yes. test it in water. soda has a higher density than water. my science class did it. diet coke floats and regular coke sinks. (: it's pretty fascinating.
Regular Coke but diet is still bad for your teeth
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.
The density of Diet Coke is 1.0, the same as water.
Yes, it does; however, it is still drinkable.
Indeed it is! Just like Diet Coke is still Coke, it just tastes slightly different.
No, it will float in vinegar or salt though. Coke is not dense enough to make an egg float.
i dont know why it floats i think because its more soda in it and the can i lighter and coke is heavier
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!
