What else can I help you with?
The property of ice that allows it to float in water is the ice's low?
density
Do ice sheets float?
No, it depens on what solution it is floating or sinking in. If the solution happens to be more dense than the ice, then ice will float. However, ice will always float on water. See related question below for more information.
Will vinegar float in water?

How does ice float on top of water?
Ice is less dense than water so it floats. ex. ice is more dense than ethanol so it sinks.
What is the analysis for can water float on water?
The ability for something to float on another substance is related to the density and since ice is LESS dense than water it would float on top of water, not water on top of ice.In other words, water is more dense than ice and thus no.

In which liquids will an ice cube float?

What liquid can ice sink in?
Vegetable oil? == == Any liquid that float over the water will make the ice sink if placed on it.Kerosene, gasoline, and some oils.
Does gasoline float?
yes it does float because it has less density. Therefore it will float.
When milk is mixed with gasoline which substances will float?

Will gasoline float on diesel?
Yes
Will gasoline float in air?
yes
When milk is mixed with and gasoline which substance will float?
Gasoline
Will the hydrometer float higher in glycerin or in gasoline?
The hydrometer will float higher in glycerin than in gasoline because glycerin is denser than gasoline. The level to which the hydrometer floats indicates the density of the liquid it is submerged in.
What makes ice cream float in a root beer float?
The density in the ice cream.
