the liquid that floats has lesser density as compared to the other liquid and also it might be floating because it cannot be dissolved in the other liquid
No, liquids do not have a fixed shape. They take the shape of the container they are in.
To transfer liquids from one container to another, you can use a funnel to prevent spills. Simply place the funnel in the opening of the receiving container and pour the liquid slowly and steadily from the original container. Make sure both containers are stable and on a level surface for easy and mess-free transfer.
Mercury and water are two liquids that show an upper meniscus when measured in a graduated cylinder or other narrow container. This means that the liquid forms a concave shape at the surface where it meets the container's walls.
Liquids. ... In a liquid, the particles are still in close contact, so liquids have a definite volume. However, because the particles can move about each other rather freely, a liquid has no definite shape and takes a shape dictated by its container.
With a liquid, you can easily change its shape to fill the container it occupies, allowing it to take on various forms. Liquids can flow and move freely, enabling them to mix with other liquids or substances, which is not possible with solids. Additionally, liquids can exert pressure in all directions, a characteristic that is not applicable to solids in the same way.

Yes, honey is considered a liquid because it flows and takes the shape of its container like other liquids.
Okay... Whoever wrote this was really stupid. One of the main characteristics of liquid is that it takes the shape of the bottom of it's container. So no, a liquid does not keep it's own shape. If it did, then it would be a solid.
Liquid
The different layers are formed because the two liquids are not compatible, or do not mix well. The order of the layers is always from the densest liquid on the bottom to the least dense liquid on top. For example, oil and water, water is denser so it sinks to the bottom and the oil floats. Liquids may form layers whether or not they are of equal volume.
Gravity. The gravitational pull of the Earth will exert a force on anything with a mass and pull it towards the centre of the Earth. As we're essentially standing on the surface of a sphere, the centre of the Earth is pretty much straight down and gravity will pull liquids to the bottom of any container.
Liquids can flow from place to place because liquids have no definite shape. Instead, a liquid takes the shape of its container. Without a container, liquid spreads into a wide shallow puddle.
Immersion heaters allow you to heat liquids directly. This is more efficient than heating the object that holds the liquid, because the heat must heat the container, then the container must heat the liquid. Other heaters cannot do this because they cannot be submerged into liquids.

Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter (with solid, liquid and plasma being the other states). It has the distinction of taking both the shape and the volume of the container that it is in. If you want to include plasma, that too will expand - acting like a gas. So will supercritical fluids which might be considered gases by some definitions, but not by others..
The basic properties of any liquid are that it has a definite volume, it conforms to the shape of its container, it is not compressible and its elements and molecules are not in fixed positions. 1. They take the shape of the container they are put in. 2. They usually wet surfaces apart from metallic liquids like mercury. 3. When heated they boil off to form gas(boiling point). 4. When cooled they take the solid form (freezing point). 5) smell 6) colour
