What solid is lighter than water but heavier than oil?
That is imposible ======================= Thank you. Now go to your room and study your spelling and punctuation lesson. What we need is a solid with a density less than 1 gm/cm3, and then an oil with a density less than that of the solid we found. Here are a couple of solids that float on water: -- Paraffin wax . . . 0.8 to 0.9 -- Sodium . . . 0.968 The question doesn't specify a particular type of oil. Here are a few I found that are lighter than water, paraffin, and sodium, along with their densities: -- Crude, 48° API . . . . 0.79 -- Crude, Texas . . . . 0.873 -- Vehicle gasoline . . 0.737 -- Kerosene . . . . . . 0.817 -- Olive oil . . . . . . . 0.80 to 0.92 If you add any of these liquids to a tall glass of water, they will float on top of it, and a lump of paraffin or sodium will float at the level where the oil and water meet. (Don't try this at home, at least not with sodium !)
What fuel does paraffin lamp use?
The fuel used is paraffin
Is the density of any frozen oil less than that of liquid oil?
No. It is more dense.
Why does oil float on the water?
Because the specific gravity of oil is lower than that of water. The density of water is 1 g/cm 3 and since the density of oil is less than 1 g/cm 3 it will float. if the density was more than it would sink.
If you mixed oil and vinegar together which one would rise to the top?
Oil has a lower density than vinegar. When oil and vinegar are mixed, the oil rises, or floats to the top.
How do you convert 5 kg of paraffin to liters?
You need to know the density of the paraffin. Density is defined by unit of mass per unit of volume. Paraffin oil has a density of approximately 0.8 gm per cubic cm. Paraffin wax slightly more at 0.9 gm per cubic cm.
When paraffin oil and water are poured into a separate and the paraffin oil forms a layer on top of the water?
When paraffin oil and water are poured into a container, the paraffin oil forms a layer on top of the water because it is less dense than water. This difference in density causes the oil to float, creating a distinct separation between the two liquids. Additionally, paraffin oil is non-polar, while water is polar, leading to poor miscibility and further reinforcing the separation. As a result, the two substances do not mix and remain as distinct layers.
Does paraffin oil float on water?
depends on the type of wax. Beeswax candels should float because their density is slightly less than that of water.
Which liquid has a higher density between water and paraffin?
Water
What is the state of paraffin oil at a temperature of 450?
Paraffin oil is a gas at 450 oC.
What is the Difference between paraffin oil and paraffin liquid?
Paraffin wax is a white or colorless soft solid that is used as a lubricant, when this is melted down it becomes a paraffin liquid. Paraffin oil is used in cosmetics and medical settings and is a highly refined mineral oil.
Can paraffin oil be used to produce olive oil?
No. Paraffin is mineral oil (petroleum). Olive oil is only made from olives.
Why won't paraffin oil dissolve in sodium chloride?
Paraffin oil is a non-polar liquid.
Will ice float deeper in water or in paraffin?
Ice will float deeper in water than in paraffin. This is because the density of ice is lower than that of water, making it buoyant in water. However, paraffin has a lower density than water, so ice will sink deeper in paraffin.
How do you remove paraffin smell from cupboard?
paraffin mineral oil smell
What is the difference between paraffin oil and oil?
Paraffin oil is a type of mineral oil that is commonly used for lubrication and as a laxative. Oil, on the other hand, is a general term that can refer to various substances that are liquid at room temperature, including vegetable oils, essential oils, and mineral oils like paraffin oil.
Palm oil and paraffin oil difference?
Palm oil refers to an edible vegetable oil while paraffin oil refers to an inflammable liquid hydrocarbon that used as a fuel.
