Why is paraffin put on top of the boiled water?
Paraffin is often used on top of boiled water to create a barrier that prevents evaporation. This helps maintain the water's temperature and reduces the risk of contamination from airborne particles. Additionally, it can help preserve the water's quality by limiting exposure to air, which can affect taste and freshness.
Is an oil with the density 0.9 denser than water?
No, relative density is relative to water. Therefore, oil with a relative density of 0.9 is 90% the density of water. Which is why oil floats on top of water. Put both in a glass to see.
What will happen when you mix oil and boiling water?
it depends on were you boil it.... if in frying pan you'll end up covered by boiling hot drops of oil because of some chemical reaction. if Boiled on a pot it boils normally ( i have done it but don't try the frying pan :)
When you put oil and water together why dont the globs of fat float to the top?
When you mix oil and water, the oil forms droplets known as emulsions. These droplets remain suspended in the water due to their differing densities and the lack of a strong attraction between oil and water molecules, which prevents the oil from floating to the top. Additionally, emulsifiers can help stabilize the mixture by surrounding the oil droplets and preventing them from coalescing.
What happens when you freeze oil and water together?
When you freeze oil and water together, they will separate into distinct layers as they have different freezing points. The water will freeze before the oil, causing it to solidify on top of the water. This results in a two-layered system when frozen.
Why do not put water on an oil flame?
oil gets on top of water and oil is flamable
Can you put oil on top of water?
Yes, it will float on top. I recommend not to pollute the water though it can harm the environment :).
Why don't you put water on an oil flame?
Oil is less dense than water, so if you throw water on an oil flame the oil will float on top and continue to burn.
Why doesn't water put out burning oil?
Because the water just pushes the oil around. The oil is lighter than water so it will stay on top and burn.
What will happen when oil is put in a glass of water?
The oil will float on top of the water because it is nonpolar and water is polar, so the oil will not dissolve in the water, plus it is less dense than water.
What is the significance of the floating stuff on top of boiled water?
The floating stuff on top of boiled water is usually foam or impurities that rise to the surface during the boiling process. It is not harmful to consume, but removing it can improve the appearance and taste of the water or food being boiled.
What will happen if you will put a mixture of coconut oil and water in a separating funnel for some time?
the oil will not mix with water and stay as bubble in the top
How do you get your ears unclogged?
boil water... put it into a cup, rest your clogged ear over top of the cup. the steam from the boiled water will unclog your ear.
Does the order in which you add liquids affects the order of the layers formed by those liquids?
No, it doesn't matter. If you put water and oil in a cup, the oil will always be on top of the water, no matter the order that you put them in. This is because oil is less dense then water:)
Which has the lowest density between cooking oil and water?
The oil is floating on water, so it density is lower than that of water.
What are some ways of separating of a mixture?
Put two difference types of liquids that have different density's. Like put water and olive oil and the oil will sit on top of the olive oil.
Why does a fluid sink or rise?
it matters if it lighter or more dense so if you put oil in water together the oil will sink to the bottom and the water will stay at the top
