What if ice cubes are put in kerosene?

If ice cubes are put in kerosene, the ice will melt due to the higher temperature of the kerosene. Kerosene has a lower freezing point than water, so it will not freeze the water in the ice cubes. The ice will eventually melt and mix with the kerosene, but they will not chemically react with each other.


Which of the following liquids form a single layer on mixing?

Liquids that are immiscible (do not mix) will form a single layer when mixed. Examples include oil and water, where the oil will float on top of the water, forming distinct layers.


Can you mix heating oil and kerosene?

The process would need to be similar to making a horse from a mule and a cow.


Is kerosene good to mix with ashphalt?

No, kerosene is not recommended to be mixed with asphalt. It can degrade the asphalt binder, affecting the overall performance and durability of the asphalt mixture. It is important to use recommended additives and mixtures for asphalt to maintain its quality.


Why does kerosene floats on water?

Kerosene floats on water for the same reason everything else floats. It weighs less than water and has buoyancy. If you put a drop of kerosene on water you will notice it forms a bubble, like a drop fill with air that is lighter than water. It is also an oil based product. Oil and water do not mix therefore the kerosene cannot mix with the water and therefore stays separate from the water. Oil slicks work this way too and kills anything near the surface of the water. In Pearl Harbor the USS Arizona has been leaking oil since it sank. Daily, oil blobs or drops rise to the surface and float on the water. So if you put kerosene on the bottom of a jar of water it will rise and float because it is less dense and lighter than water and will not mix with the water to weigh it back down to the bottom of the jar.Because it's immiscible with water and its density is lower than of water: it is lighter!

What is the difference between cold mix asphalt and cutback asphalt?

Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of aggregate and asphalt. Cutback asphalt is a liquid asphalt. Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of Aggregate and Asphalt. The Asphalt is usually am emulsion asphalt or a cutback asphalt. An emulsion asphalt is asphalt cement blended with water. Cutback asphalt is asphalt cement blended with a fuel oil, kerosene, or a naptha. The water, fuel oil, kerosene or Naphta evaporates and leaves the asphalt.


What is deference between cut back bitumen and bitumenemulsion?

Cutback Bitumen : Normal practice is to heat bitumen to reduce its viscosity. In some situations preference is given to use liquid binders such as cutback bitumen. In cutback bitumen suitable solvent is used to lower the viscosity of the bitumen. From the environmental point of view also cutback bitumen is preferred. The solvent from the bituminous material will evaporate and the bitumen will bind the aggregate. Cutback bitumen is used for cold weather bituminous road construction and maintenance. The distillates used for preparation of cutback bitumen are naphtha, kerosene, diesel oil, and furnace oil. There are different types of cutback bitumen like rapid curing (RC), medium curing (MC), and slow curing (SC). RC is recommended for surface dressing and patchwork. MC is recommended for premix with less quantity of fine aggregates. SC is used for premix with appreciable quantity of fine aggregates.Bitumen Emulsion : Bitumen emulsion is a liquid product in which bitumen is suspended in a finely divided condition in an aqueous medium and stabilized by suitable material. Normally cationic type emulsions are used in India. The bitumen content in the emulsion is around 60% and the remaining is water. When the emulsion is applied on the road it breaks down resulting in release of water and the mix starts to set. The time of setting depends upon the grade of bitumen. The viscosity of bituminous emulsions can be measured as per IS: 8887-1995. Three types of bituminous emulsions are available, which are Rapid setting (RS), Medium setting (MS), and Slow setting (SC). Bitumen emulsions are ideal binders for hill road construction. Where heating of bitumen or aggregates are difficult. Rapid setting emulsions are used for surface dressing work. Medium setting emulsions are preferred for premix jobs and patch repairs work. Slow setting emulsions are preferred in rainy season.


What is mixing ratio of kerosene and Bitumen in MC 70 prime coat?

Well, honey, the mixing ratio of kerosene and bitumen in MC 70 prime coat is typically around 1:1. But hey, you might want to check with your supplier or look at the specific product guidelines just to be sure. Can't have those roads falling apart now, can we?

Is kerosene in water a true solution?

No, kerosene in water is not a true solution. Kerosene is immiscible in water, which means that they do not mix together to form a homogeneous solution. Instead, kerosene forms separate droplets in water due to differences in their polarities.

Can spirit and kerosene mix?

Water (H2O) and kerosene (C12H26) do not mix, i.e. they are not miscible. This is due to H20 being polar and C12H26 being different, that is non-polar, through the concept of "like dissolves like."


When kerosene and water mix which liquid collects at the bottom why?

water will collect at the bottom, because of its higher density compared to kerosene
