no, a pencil will float therefore it is less dense than water

(ticonderoga #2 pencil was used)

What makes a pencil bend when put in water?

When a pencil is put in water, the water molecules are attracted to the pencil's surface due to adhesion. This attraction causes the water molecules to bond with the pencil molecules, changing the pencil's structure and making it appear bent when viewed through the water.


Why oil is dencer than water?

Oil is less dense than water because its molecules are larger and do not pack as tightly together as the molecules in water. This lower density causes oil to float on top of water when the two are mixed together.


Does a pencil remain the same when it is dipped in a glass of water?

No, the pencil will appear larger and distorted when it is dipped in a glass of water due to refraction of light. The change in appearance is caused by the bending of light as it passes from air to water, making the pencil look bent or broken.


Why when a pencil is in water it looks like if it's broken?

When a pencil is placed in water, light passing from air to water through the water's surface is refracted due to the change in speed. This refraction causes the light rays from the pencil to bend at different angles, making the pencil appear broken at the water's surface.


When a pencil is placed in a glass of water the pencil appears broken at the surface of the water. This is because the light?

bends as it passes from air into water, causing the pencil to appear broken. This phenomenon is known as refraction.


What is the conclusion of broken pencil?

-the pencil looks broken & bent in water. - the pencil looks bent, because of the refraction of light, that causes that to happen. -pencil looks really thick, in water.
