Yes, benzene floats on water. Benzene has a density of 0.88, water has a density of 1.0. The solubility in water is just 0.8 g/l at 25°C (Wikipedia)

Which is the upper layer between water and benzene?
Benzene
Benzene is a non-polar molecule and meaning that it does not have a positive or negative side Which statement BEST describes how benzene will dissolve in water?
Benzene is non-polar as it does not have the electronegative atoms such as oxygen or chlorine in it. Therefore, benzene does not exhibit polarity as opposed to molecules which include as water.
Does iodine float on water?
NO iodine can not dissolve in water but it can dissolve in benzene
Does feldspar float in water?
no,it does not float
Does zircon float?
No, zircon does not float on water.
Which is the upper layer between water and benzene?
Benzene
Where the water is set in water benzene mixture?
Bottom. Water density is 1kg/m^3 benzene density is 876.50kg/m^3 so water is basically "heavier" than benzene.
Is benzene an electrolyte in an aqueous solution?
Benzene, being a covalent compound is not soluble in water. So a solution of benzene in water is absurd. However in answering your question I would say that, as benzene is not soluble in water it does not function as an electrolyte. Some more improvement would be that benzene itself is not an electrolyte.

Does Benzene and water form a good solution?
No benzene is extremely hydrophobic and sits like an oil on top of the water.
Does iodine float on water?
NO iodine can not dissolve in water but it can dissolve in benzene
What will result when benzene is mixed with water?
A liquid with two layers will form because water is polar and benzene is nonpolar. The two are not miscible.
Is toluene and benzene are soluble?
Yes. Toluene and benzene are each soluble in the other. Neither is soluble in water.
Asume benzene insoluble in water the normal boiling point of benzene and water is 80.1'c and 100'c respectively at a pressure of 1 ATM what will be the boiling point of mixture of benzene and water?
The partial pressures of water and benzene will be their corresponding vapor pressures at the boiling point so it must add up to 1 atm and this happens at roughly about 342-343 K.
Is benzene soluable?
Benzene is only soluble in other organic solvents. It is not soluble in water or other polar solvents.
Which solvent oils are most soluble is it in gasoline water ethanol or benzene?
The oils are easily soluble in gasoline (petrol) but they are also soluble in benzene but not in water and ethanol.
When benzene reacts with bromine water will it decolourise bromine water or not?
No!! Benzene wont de colourise bromine water although it is an unsaturated compound ,as it is an aromatic compound and it does not undergo addition reaction.
