Cooking oil has a higher viscosity. Alcohol doesn't, thus it "floats" (more like lies) on the matter which is heavier.
Also, oil isn't polar and water is therefore they don't mix
Pumice
In a column where different liquids are layered based on their density, the liquid with the highest density will sink to the bottom. For example, if water, oil, and honey are layered in a column, honey, being the most dense, will sink to the bottom followed by water and then oil.
Salt sink in water only for a short time because is denser than water; after this salt is dissolved in water.
A tomato will sink in water because it is denser than water. The weight of the tomato is greater than the buoyant force pushing it upwards, causing it to sink to the bottom of the water.
fish
ice
Usually in the kitchen sink, with hot soapy water.
No, a jar of water will not float to the bottom of a bucket of water. The jar will sink to the bottom due to its weight and density compared to the surrounding water.
Items that are denser than water will sink to the bottom. This includes materials like rocks, metals, and certain types of plastics. Objects that are less dense than water will float on the surface.
Yes, a brick will sink in water because it is denser than water. The weight of the brick is greater than the buoyant force acting on it, causing it to sink to the bottom.
Water puddles in the bottom of the sink when there is a clog in the drainage system, preventing the water from draining properly. This could be due to a buildup of debris, grease, or hair in the pipes, causing the water to pool in the sink. Regular maintenance and cleaning of the drains can help prevent this issue.
Yes, because water is heavier then gasoline
