What is the heaviness of a mineral called?
The heaviness of a mineral is called its density. Light minerals have a specific gravity that is lighter than heavier ones.
Is salt water's density heavier than pure water?
Salt water's density greater (not heavier) than that of pure water.
Is a solution heavier than a solvent?
Not necessarily. In a solution, the solute can make the solution heavier compared to the solvent alone. However, the overall weight of the solution would depend on the concentration of the solute in the solvent.
Can water carry a heavier weight than the weight of volume of water under it?
no
Which one is heavier a gallon of fresh water or a gallon of sea water?
A gallon of fresh water is heavier than a gallon of sea water because fresh water is denser than sea water.
Is mineral water heavier or lighter than distilled water at STP?
Mineral water will be more dense than distilled water. The disolved material adds mass, but does not increase the volume.
If a mineral is 10 times heavier than water what is its specific gravity?
The specific gravity of a mineral that is 10 times heavier than water would be 10. Specific gravity is a unitless measure that compares the density of a mineral to the density of water, which is 1 g/cm3.
Does the selenite rock float?
Selenite is a form of gypsum, a dense mineral that does not float in water. It is heavier than water, so it will sink rather than float.
Is sand heavier than water?
yes sand is heavier than water:)
Is molasses heavier than water?
Yes molasses is heavier than water
Is water or salt water heavier?
Salt water is heavier than fresh water. The salt dissolved in salt water increases its density, making it heavier than pure water.
Does soap stone float?
No, soapstone does not float in water. It is a dense, metamorphic rock composed primarily of the mineral talc, which makes it heavier than water and causes it to sink.
How will knowing that ice is heavier than water help you in your life?
ice is not heavier than water
Is vinegar heavier than water?
no vinegar is heavier
Can molten rock float on water?
No. Molten rock is heavier than water.
What is heavier diesel fuel or water?
Water is heavier than diesel fuel
What is the heaviness of a mineral called?
The heaviness of a mineral is called its density. Light minerals have a specific gravity that is lighter than heavier ones.
