Why can liquids float on each other?
Liquids can float on each other due to differences in their densities. When a less dense liquid is poured on top of a denser liquid, it will float because it is lighter and less likely to sink. This is known as stratification, where liquids of different densities form layers with the least dense liquid on top.
Why does one liquid float on one another?
When two liquids that do not mix, such as oil and water, are put together, they separate due to differences in their densities. The lighter liquid will float on top of the heavier one because of gravity, with the two layers remaining distinct due to their different chemical properties.
Will the liquid on the top have the highest or the lowest density?
The floating liquid will have a lower density than the liquid it is floating on.
What will happen to the liquid with the lowest density?
The liquid with the lowest density will float on top of liquids with higher densities. This is because objects with lower density are less dense than objects with higher density, so they will sit on top of them.
Is there a reason why ice doesn't float in a drink?
Ice floats in a drink because it is less dense than the liquid it is in. This is due to the unique structure of water molecules, which causes ice to be less dense and float on top of liquid water.
Are there other solids besides ice and water that will float in the same liquid?
Oil/petroleum (gasoline?) will float on top of water as well.
What liquid you mix with water and it float on top?
oil

Why does a icebreg float?
water is the only substance on earth where its density is HIGHER when liquid, and LOWER when solid. a substance will float on top of another if its density is lower than the other substance. so because the ice has a LOWER density it will float on top of the water
Will petrol float on diesel?
No, although it is lighter than diesel and therefore would normally float to the top, the two will dissolve in each other forming a new liquid that will not separate into layers.
How can you make dice float?
To make dice float, you can use a dense liquid like saltwater or oil in a container and gently place the dice on top. The buoyant force of the liquid will make the dice float.
Why does one liquid float on one another?

What liquids can float on top of water?
Oils, alcohols, and certain types of organic solvents, like acetone, can float on top of water due to their lower density. This causes them to form distinct layers when added to water, with the lighter liquid resting on top.
Will the liquid on the top have the highest or the lowest density?
The floating liquid will have a lower density than the liquid it is floating on.
Why do some liquids on top of each other?
They have different densities. If one liquid ( say water) is mixed with another that is lighter in density ( say oil) the lighter density will float on top. Try it!
Howdo you separate oil and water?
You can let the oil float to the top or you can use fairy liquid.
What will happen to the liquid with the lowest density?
The liquid with the lowest density will float on top of liquids with higher densities. This is because objects with lower density are less dense than objects with higher density, so they will sit on top of them.
