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.

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 mixing ratio for using denatured alcohol to remove water from k-1 kerosene?

I put one third of an 8" soda straw ( used as a dip tube) into 2 quarts of kerosene. be sure to use a clear straw so you can see how much you are putting in,,, you can also use an eye dropper if you want...Good Luck

What happens when you add soap to kerosene and water mixture?

Basically water is a polar solvent, meaning it has a positive and negative charge on it and kerosene is non polar the dipoles cancel so it has no charge. The solubility rule is that like substances dissolve like so water would mix with another polar molecule and kerosene would mix with a non polar molecule, hence why the two cant mix very well.


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."
