Does soda weigh more than water?

Alcohol found in alcoholic beverages is lighter than water. It is called ethanol. But as far as chemistry is concerned alcohols are a large family of organic compounds. Alcohols are compounds whose molecules have a hydroxyl group attached to saturated carbon atom1 of a carbon chain. The chain may be short or long. Most monohydroxy alcohols are lighter than water. Some Diols(containing two hydroxyl groups ) and Triols(containing three hydroxyl groups ) are heavier than water. Example of diol heavier than water- ethylene glycol. Example of triol heavier than water-glycerol.


Is baking soda heavier than oil?

How would the pH of a cleaner that contains caustic soda best be described?

A cleaner containing caustic soda would be described as basic, and its pH would be low, like 2 or so. Caustic soda is a pretty active (strong) base. Compare this to the pH of a neutral substance, which is 7, or an acid which is greater than 7, and the higher it is, the stronger the acid.


Is a fountain soda less carbonated then a can soda?

well yes it is because the can is lighter than the soda. But understand that as you put the soda i the can /bottle it does get heavier. But more soda can fit in the bottle than the can so that makes the soda bottle heavier than the soda can.
