If you filled a 1L bottle with water and another 1L bottle with rubbing alcohol, which bottle would feel heavier? Use your data to thoroghly explain why. The rubbing alcohol would be heavier because water's density is 1.0, and rubbing alcohol's density is much more than that. Right???

The density is different for different types of rubbing alcohols; between 0,86 and 0,88 g/cm3 at 20 0C.

∙ 13y agoPure ethanol has a density of 0,789 g/cm3at room temperature.
Rubbing alcohol is also less dense than water because waters density is 1 g/cm3.

Does rubbing alcohol or pepsi evaporate?
At RT, rubbing alcohol would evaporate in a quicker time as its boiling point is less than that of water.
Is water the least dense than all the liquids?
No. Several liquids, including gasoline, oil and alcohol, are less dense.
Why does alcohol float on the oil?
The alcohol is less dense than the water, so it floats up to meet the density needs.
Why does 1 cup water 1 cup rubbing alcohol equal less than 2 cups?
Because water and rubbing alcohol are mutually soluble. Liquids have quite a bit of empty space between the molecules. When something is soluble, its molecules will fit in the spaces between the molecules of the liquid. So water molecules fit in beween alcohol molecules, alcohol molecules fit in between water molecules, and the mixture takes up less room than the 2 separate liquids.
What is rubbing alcohol made out of?
Active Ingredients Ethyl Alcohol by Volume 70% Ingredients Denatonium Benzoate , Methyl Isobutyl Ketone , Water The ingredients will be listed on the bottle. There are two standard kinds of rubbing alcohol: (1) one made with isopropryl alcohol, which has a certain toxicity but is more pleasant or neutral smelling; and (2) one made with ethyl alcohol with an added denaturing agent to make it inedible. The ethyl alcohol (ethanol) variety has a bitter or sour or unpleasant smell, and is therefore much less popular than the isopropryl alcohol variety. This is why even though the pharmaceutical definition for "rubbing alcohol" is denatured ethyl alcohol, isopropryl alcohol is far more available commercially and is also labeled as "rubbing" alcohol. The uses of both varieties are the same, although isopropryl alcohol, because of its inherant toxicity, carries warnings about overuse and safe handling. According to Wikipedia.org1: Common, over the counter "Rubbing Alcohol" in pads or in fluid form is generally 60-70% solution of isopropanol in water. Although Isopropanol is sometimes sold as "Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol, 70%" and "Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol, 99%" (harder to find but generally more useful for experimenters & cleaning uses), there is no isopropyl alcohol in the United States Pharmacopeia formula for Rubbing alcohol, U.S.P.. It is used as a disinfectant, and is a common solvent.
Is glycerin less dense than water and cooking oil?
No, it is more dense than water and cooking oil.
Is oil less dense then water?
Kerosene and turpentine are less dense than engine oil. So is water and rubbing alcohol and other common liquids.
What happens if you mix chlorine bleach and rubbing alcohol?
Answer#1The alcohol, being less dense will float on top. They do not react. This answer is nonsense. Alcohol and bleach will mix, and they react, but not in a way that will kill you. Alcohol is less dense than water or bleach (water plus sodium hypochlorite) but alcohol and water do mix... mixed drinks, anyone?
What type of liquid has a close density to vegetable oil?
Rubbing alcohol is less dense, it will float on top ofvegetableoil.
Why does ice float on water but sinks in methylated spirits?
The density of rubbing alcohol is 75% that of water. Thus ice (frozen water which is roughly equal in density to liquid water), sinks in rubbing alcohol since it has more mass per cubic millimeter than the alcohol does. In order to float, the object would have to be less dense than the alcohol per cubic space.
Does rubbing alcohol or pepsi evaporate?
At RT, rubbing alcohol would evaporate in a quicker time as its boiling point is less than that of water.
What liquid is less dense than alcohol?
hmmm, water??? lol, joking!
How can an ice cube float in a glass of water?
ice cube floats in water because it is dense and heavy if u compare water to alcohol then an ice cube will sink in the alcohol because alcohol is less dense which means its light.
Is water the least dense than all the liquids?
No. Several liquids, including gasoline, oil and alcohol, are less dense.
Why does alcohol float on the oil?
The alcohol is less dense than the water, so it floats up to meet the density needs.
Why does rubbing alcohol evaporates faster than water?
Rubbing alcohol has a much lower boiling point than that of water, allowing less ambient heat to cause it to evaporate. also because of its different molecules in each liquids.
What is of less density than rubbing alcohol?
oil
