Why is density needed to know whether a substance will float or sink in water?
It's actually pretty easy. If the density of the substance is higher than the density of water, the object will sink. If the density of the substance is lower than the density of water, the object will float. Be aware though that various substances may have dissolved into the water, thus changing its density. For example, seawater has a different density than fresh water.
Does water affect density of wood?
yes water can increase the density of water as wood has the power to absorb water and so the density of water is drastically increased
Would 1.4 gmL sink or float in water?
As a general rule, anything that is more dense than the medium they are floating in will sink and things that are less dense than the medium will float. So, if you are looking into whether or not 0.85 g/ml will sink or float in water, which has a density of 1.0 g/ml, then the answer is it will float. The mechanism that will keep the object afloat is the bouancy of the medium. The force of bouancy is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.
How much density does water have?
Pure water has a density of 1,000 kg/m3
Which has greater density ice or water how can you say that?
Water has a greater density than ice.
How do you know if a compound has a density less than 1 gmL?
If it floats in water, it has a density less than water. Density of water is 1.0 g/mL
What happens to an object that is placed in water that has a density greater than 1.0 gmL If the density of the object has a density less than 1.0 gmL?
If an object with a density less than 1.0 g/mL is placed in water with a density greater than 1.0 g/mL, it will float. This is because objects with a lower density than water will displace an amount of water equal to their own weight, causing them to float.
Will 0.2 gml float sink or suspended?
A density of 0.2 g/ml is less dense than water, so an object with this density will float on water.
How is the density of an object in kgl related to its density in gml?
If kgl is kg/L and gml is g/mL these densities are equal.
What liquids will be the unkown water 9982gmL toluene 8669 gmL clorofomo 14832 gmL ethanol 0789 gmL?
the correct density numbers are the following water= 0.9982 g/mL Toluene= .8669 g/mL Clorofomo 1.4832 g/mL Ethanol= .789 g/mL
What is the density of copper gml?
8.92 g/mL
If water has a density of 1.0gmL and a test liquid has a density of 1.1 gmL pouring equal portions into a cup will cause what reaction?
The denser liquid (1.1 gmL) will sink below the less dense liquid (1.0 gmL). The liquids will form two distinct layers in the cup based on their densities, with the denser liquid at the bottom and the less dense liquid on top.
If you had a object with a density of 1.12 gcm3 would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35 gmL?
The object would float in the salt water since its density is less than the density of the salt water. Objects with a lower density than the fluid they are placed in will float, while those with higher density will sink.
What is an example of a solid with a density of 1 gmL?
The density of sodium is near 1: 0,968 g/cm3.
A fish tank holds 15.7 gallons of water Using the density of 1.0 gmL for water determine the number of pounds of water in the fish tank?
What Gals are you refering to Imperial or USA?
Density of lead in gml?
The density of lead is approximately 11.34 grams per milliliter.
Would 0.92 gmL sink or float?
A substance with a density of 0.92 g/mL would float on water, as the density of water is approximately 1 g/mL. Objects with a density less than water will float, and those with a density greater than water will sink.
