No. Turpentine does not sink in water. Like many oil based organic solvents, turpentine floats in pure water. Engineers and scientists use a measurement called Specific Gravity to measure how dense a liquid is in comparison to that of water. Pure turpentine has a Specific Gravity of 0.85(@25 deg Celsius). On the other hand, water has a specific gravity of 1.0. That means that turpentine at will eventually float to the top of a water bath.
What else can I help you with?
Would gasoline turpentine or mercury settle to the bottom when mixed with water?
Gasoline and turpentine are less dense than water and would float on the surface, while mercury is denser than water and would sink to the bottom when mixed with water.
Which of these solutes settle at the bottom when mixed with water?
Sand and sugar are examples of solutes that will settle at the bottom when mixed with water due to their higher density compared to water.
What happens to the particles in a suspension if they are not being mixed?
These particles will settle to the bottom of the container.
Do pebbles and sand drop to the bottom of water to form a mixed layer?
Yes, pebbles and sand are denser than water, so they will sink to the bottom. Over time, they can form a mixed layer as the smaller particles settle in between the larger pebbles.
Why do some mixed with solvents settle at the bottom of the container?
Some substances, when mixed with solvents, have a higher density than the solvent. This causes them to sink to the bottom due to gravity. Additionally, some substances may form insoluble precipitates or aggregates that are denser than the solvent, leading to settling at the bottom of the container.

What are examples of solution that can settle in the bottom when mixed with solvent?
sand

Did the salt in Salt Lake City lake settle to the bottom?
no the waves made it mixed up.
What would happen is you mixed turpentine with bleach?
Mixing turpentine with bleach can create toxic fumes that are harmful when inhaled. These fumes can irritate the respiratory system and lead to symptoms such as coughing, shortness of breath, and chest pain. It is important to avoid combining these two chemicals to prevent potential health hazards.
Do pebbles and sand drop to the bottom of water to form a mixed layer?
Yes, pebbles and sand are denser than water, so they will sink to the bottom. Over time, they can form a mixed layer as the smaller particles settle in between the larger pebbles.
What happens the particles in a suspension if they are allowed to stand?
Over time, the heavier particles settle to the bottom due to gravity, separating from the liquid phase. This process is known as sedimentation. The liquid above the settled particles is called the supernatant.
Why do some mixed with solvents settle at the bottom of the container?
Some substances, when mixed with solvents, have a higher density than the solvent. This causes them to sink to the bottom due to gravity. Additionally, some substances may form insoluble precipitates or aggregates that are denser than the solvent, leading to settling at the bottom of the container.
Is a ash dissolved in water?
When ash is mixed with water, it will not dissolve like sugar or salt. Instead, the ash particles will likely settle at the bottom of the water, creating a suspension.
Will turpentine kill you?
no,if mixed with something like honey its actually a good way to cure intestinal parasites or flu
What was the use of turpentine in the thirteen English colonies?
it was used for paint related purposes and mixed with alchool for ilumination purposes.
