Most (but not all) oil is less dense than water. That oil which is less dense than water will float. That oil which is denser than water will sink.
No, engine oil is denser than gasoline and will sink to the bottom if they are mixed together. Oil is typically less buoyant compared to gasoline.
Yes, the type of liquid affects whether a marble will sink or float. Objects with a density greater than that of the liquid will sink, while objects with a lower density will float. For example, a marble made of glass (denser than water) will sink in water but float in a lighter liquid like oil.
Helium is light and it will float / rise.
sink
Float.
FLOAT
It'll float
It sinks
Things sink or float in oil based on their density. Objects that are less dense than the oil will float, while objects that are denser will sink. This is due to Archimedes' principle - an object will float if the weight of the fluid it displaces is equal to or greater than its own weight.
It depends on the density of the object and the density of the oil. If the object has a higher density than the oil, it will sink. If the object has a lower density than the oil, it will float.
No. It is more dense. It will sink.
No, water will sink in oil because oil is less dense than water. This causes the water to be heavier and sink below the oil.
Chalk powder is denser than oil, so it will sink when added to oil. This is because the density of an object determines if it will float or sink in a liquid - objects with a higher density than the liquid will sink, while objects with a lower density will float.
No. For their size, diamonds are heavy and will not float.
No. Only pumice (volcanic) stone can float.
A plastic always sink in oil like a plastic bottle will always float in oil.
