Does aluminum sink in gasoline?
Aluminum will sink in gasoline because its density (2.7g per cc) is greater than that of gasoline (about 0.7g per cc).
If gasoline is poured carefully into liquid water will it sink or float explain?
Gasoline is less dense than water, so it will float on top of the water rather than sinking. The difference in density between the two liquids causes the gasoline to create a distinct layer on top of the water.
Can magnesium float or is it lighter than air?
Magnesium is denser than air, so it will sink in air rather than float.
If you put diesel and unleaded gas in a container will they separate and the gas float to the top?
Yes, diesel and gasoline have different densities, with diesel being heavier than gasoline. If you mix them in a container, they will not completely separate, but the diesel will sink and the gasoline will float on top due to the difference in density.

Why do things float or sink?
Air resistance.
Will a piece of platinum float on gasoline?
No, a piece of platinum will not float on gasoline. Platinum is a dense metal with a high specific gravity, which means it will sink in liquids that are less dense than itself, such as gasoline. Since platinum is significantly denser than gasoline, it will submerge rather than float.
Why does the same piece of foil float or sink?
The same piece of foil can float or sink depending on its shape and how it is positioned in the water. If the foil is shaped to trap air, it will float. If the foil is crumpled or folded so it doesn't trap air, it will sink.
Orange sink or float?
An Orange with a Skin on will Float- Air will be trapped inside the skin, but an Orange without the skin on, although lighter, has no air trapped, and will, in turn, sink.
Will engine oil float on top of gasoline?
No, engine oil is denser than gasoline and will sink to the bottom if they are mixed together. Oil is typically less buoyant compared to gasoline.
Does helium float or sink in air at room temperature?
Helium is lighter than air. So it will float in air.
When milk is mixed with and gasoline which substance will float?
