Archimedes of Syracuse, (Ancient Greek) did.

Archimedes' principle is a law of physics stating that the upward buoyant force exerted on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid the body displaces.

How are buoyancy and flotation linked?

Buoyancy is the force that allows an object to float or be supported when submerged in a fluid. Flotation is the process by which an object rises to the surface of a fluid due to the buoyant force acting upon it. In simplest terms, buoyancy causes flotation.


How is phosphorus obtained?

Phosphorus is mainly obtained from phosphate rock, which is mined and then processed using chemical methods to produce phosphorus compounds. These compounds can be further processed to produce elemental phosphorus. Industrial methods such as the thermal process and the electrothermal process are commonly used to extract phosphorus from phosphate rock.


What physical property does flotation rely on on an ore?

Flotation relies on the physical property of hydrophobicity, which refers to the tendency of certain minerals to repel water and cling to air bubbles. In an ore flotation process, the hydrophobic minerals attach to air bubbles and float to the surface, separating them from hydrophilic minerals that remain in the water.
