Ordinary water is heavy to carry and is the density reference point (density 1). Most solids have higher density and are thus heavier than water.
Heavy water is an entirely different matter. It is water where both hydrogen atoms are the heavier hydrogen isotope called deuterium. Heavy water has a density only trivially higher than ordinary water, so you would probably not notice it was at all heavier if you were trying to carry it. However it has both physical and chemical properties very different from ordinary water, making it interesting and valuable for several uses (e.g. certain types of nuclear reactors need large quantities of heavy water). The difference in chemical properties makes heavy water toxic to living things as it slows down biochemical reaction rates to a level too slow to sustain life.

Why does it take longer to heat a bucket of water than a cup of water?
Because there is more water in a bucket than in a cup, and more energy has to be put into the bucket of water than the little cup of water to bring them to the same temperature.
A technique used to calculate the volume of irregularly shaped solids?
To calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object, a good idea would be to get a bucket full of water and submerge that object into the bucket. Then measure the amount of water that runs over and that should be the volume of your object. For example if you take a sealed bottle of bottle stick it in a bucket filled with water, then let it's volume filll the space and displace the water. The water that is displaced or the water that runs out is the volume of your irregular shape. Get it?
If you put a five pound fish in a gallon of water does the water now weigh fifteen pounds?
A gallon of water weighs about 8.34 pounds. If you have a good sized bucket with a gallon of water in it and you put a 5-pound fish in the bucket, you'll have a bucket that weighs about 13.34 pounds (plus the weight of the bucket). That's as long as the bucket doesn't overflow. The fish will (usually) be neutrally bouyant in the water, and it will be essentially weightless in that water. But its weight will add to that of the water in the bucket. No, it won't weigh 15 pounds, but it will weigh in as suggested. However, the weight of the water itself will not change.
Is this sentence correct She fell down in the bucket of water?
Maybe this would be better: She fell down and landed in a bucket of water. :D
Will bottled salt water placed into a bucket of water keep it from freezing?
It will certainly not keep the water in the bucket from freezing and, if the temperature goes low enough, the bottled salt water will also freeze.
Does one bucket full of water contain more atoms than a bucket full of water from the ocean?
no
When a brick is lowered into a bucket full of water some of the water spills out over the sides why does it happen?
Why it happens because the mass of the brick is heavy and the force apon it is because of its weight and it makes it float and spills out of the bucket.
What gets hotter a bucket of water a empty bucket?
The bucket full of water because liquids heat up faster than solids.
Have you ever drawn water from a well and felt that the bucket of water is heavier when it is out of the water?
No, I haven't. But, when the bucket is in the water, the weight is supported by the water in the well. Once the bucket is raised out of the water, the weight is no longer supported, and the full weight of the bucket and the water within the bucket is felt as it is raised towards the surface.
A bucket full with water is pints or gal?
It is both .
If a bucket weighs 8 kilograms when full of water and it weighs 4.8 kilograms when half full of water what does it weigh when it is a quarter full of water?
8 kg is the weight of the bucket plus a full bucket of water. 4.8 kg is the weight of the bucket plus half a bucket of water.8 = b + w4.8 = b + w/2Subtract #2 from #1 to get3.2 = w/2so6.4 = wsubstitute that into #1 to get 1.6 kg for the bucket.The question is what is the weight with w/41.6 kg for the bucket and (4.8)/4 for the water1.6 + 1.2 = 2.8 kg ■
What is the ice bucket challenge?
the ice bucket challenge is a challenge that requires a bucket full of ice cold water and dumping all of the water inside of the bucket on to you or someone else's body. this is used for a charity
What is heavier 1 kg mass or a large bucket full of water?
either, depending on the sze of the bucket really
Why it is easier to lift a bucket full of water under the surface of water?
Because all that you are actually lifting is the bucket. The water is moving in it's own medium and so is weightless.
If you have a 4 -liter bucket and a 7-liter bucket. You need 3-liters of water for an aquarium.Explain how to get 3 liters of water if neither bucket is marked.?
You could fill the 7-liter bucket and pour water into the aquarium until it is full, but that would make too much sense. If you really need to have three liters, fill the 7-liter bucket (which, although unmarked, will be larger than the 4-liter bucket) and pour it into the 4-liter bucket. When the 4-liter bucket is full, there will be three liters remaining in the 7-liter bucket.
What weight measure would you use to measure a bucket full of water?
pounds
How do you pick up water after spilling a bucket full on the floor?
