Paint thinner, varsol, and mineral spirits are essentially the same. There are slight differences in the chemistry, but they are functionally equivalent.
I need to have units as well for this density
NO
It is the solute. "Thinner" usually means mineral spirits, and a LOT of things will dissolve in mineral spirits.
No.
In short, no. In the case of diamonds, the intermolecular distances are so small that no solvent can penetrate into the crystal to initiate disintegration. Whatever you chose to do to a diamond, it either stayed unchanged or is destroyed.

No not the same.
There are 6.33 pounds in a gallon of Mineral Spirits
Mineral spirits is a parts cleaner/paint thinner. Do not apply mineral spirits to your hair. Your hair will be very dry and very brittle.
No. Because of the confusion between turpentine, mineral turpentine, mineral spirits and mineral oil, I have included links to all of these substances. All of the above except mineral oil are toxic if one drinks them. Turpentine is the only one that is not a petroleum distillate. Mineral oil as sold in a pharmacy is for constipation and to be used as directed. See related links.
I just had the same problem. I used mineral spirits on an old cloth and a putty knife to scrape off the tar. It worked great! The tar will dissolve with the mineral spirits.
NO
Yes it is possible to use mineral spirits, but there are safer and more effective ways. After soaking the bearings in mineral spirits, then rinse them with 99% isopropyl alcohol and dry.

Yes, and then wash the mineral spirits off your hands with soap and warm water.
Mineral spirits is a colorless liquid that is made from petroleum. It is commonly used as a paint thinner and sometimes as a solvent.
