Does helium float or sink in water?
Helium gas is less dense than air, so it will rise and float in both air and water.
Will a raisin float or sink in soda water?
A raisin will float in soda water because the gas bubbles in the soda water attach to the rough surface of the raisin, making it buoyant.
What makes a balloon float on water?
A balloon filled with a gas that is less dense than water, such as helium or hydrogen, will float on water due to the buoyant force acting on it. The gas inside the balloon displaces an amount of water equal in weight to the balloon, causing it to float.
How does sparkling water make things float?
Sparkling water contains carbon dioxide gas that creates bubbles. These bubbles attach to objects, making them buoyant and causing them to float. The bubbles decrease the density of the water, allowing objects to float more easily.
Does dry ice float or sink in water?
It sinks. Thanks for using Answers.com!
Does gas float on water and why?
Oil and gas are less dense than water therefore will separate and float.
Why does oil and gas float on water?
Oil and gas are less dense than water therefore will separate and float.
Does fluorine float on water?

Does water float on gas?

Will the element Xenon float in water?
No, xenon is a noble gas and therefore is not reactive with water. It will not float or interact with water.
Does gas fuel float in water?
no because is air not liquid
Does gas float on top of water?
Gasoline floats on water. That is why water is not used on gasoline fires. The fire floats on the water and spreads rather than being smothered by the water.
Does helium float or sink in water?
Helium gas is less dense than air, so it will rise and float in both air and water.
How do you know whether something will float or sink?
It depends on the density of the solid, liquid, or gas. If the density is lower than water it will float. (Water's density is about 1). Also, if the volume of the solid, liquid, or gas is bigger than the mass then it will also float. It will sink if the solid, liquid, or gas's density is higher than water's density. :)
Which gas giant could float on water?
Saturn, because it has a lower density than water.
Will a raisin float or sink in soda water?
A raisin will float in soda water because the gas bubbles in the soda water attach to the rough surface of the raisin, making it buoyant.
