What else can I help you with?
Would the same object as above sink or float in a container of fresh water with a density of 1.0 gmL?
The object would float in fresh water since its density is lower than that of water (1.0 g/mL). The object displaces an amount of water equal to its weight, which is less than the weight of water it displaces, causing it to float.
Why should an object sink in salty water and float in fresh water?
The only possible reason for that would be that after the object floated for a while,the salt ate a hole in it, the water poured into it, and it stopped floating.If the object doesn't corrode, dissolve, or get water-logged, then it might float insalty water and sink in fresh water, because salty water is always more densethan either fresh or distilled water.
Why does sea water freezes faster than fresh water?
sea water doesnt freeze faster than fresh water, fresh water freezes faster than sea water as it has a lower freezing point than sea water has as sea water contains salt which makes the boiling/freezing points increase therefore making the sea water freeze at a lower temperature.
Will ships float or sink in fresh water?
Ships will float in fresh water as long as their density is lower than that of the water they displace. This is due to Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
Does sound travel faster in sea water due to the salt?
Sound travels faster in sea water compared to fresh water because of the higher density and associated increase in speed of sound transmission in salt water. Salt also helps in conducting sound waves more effectively than in fresh water.
Does salt water or fresh water melt faster?
Salt water melts faster than fresh water because salt lowers the freezing point of water. This means that salt water needs to be even colder than fresh water to freeze, leading to a faster melting rate when exposed to warmer temperatures.
What evaporates faster polluted water or fresh water?
Fresh water evaporate faster.
Would an aluminum can dissolve faster in fresh water or salt water?
Salt water
Does oil and water evaporate faster than fresh water?
Fresh water is evaporated faster.
Why does salty water evaporates faster than fresh water?
Fresh water is evaporated faster.
Does sugar dissolve faster in salt or fresh water?
I would think it would dissolve faster in fresh water, as the fresh water doesn't have anything dissolved in it yet whereas the salt water has dissolved salts and so less room for the sugar molecules. A. yes; sugar does dissolve faster than salt does, in fresh water.
Will fresh water or salt evaporate faster?
At the same temperature fresh water evaporates faster.
