What else can I help you with?
Which weighs more 5 gal of sand or 5 gal water?
Sand is heavier than water.
Why does sand sink to the bottom of water?
Sand has a higher density than water, so it sinks to the bottom when placed in water due to gravity pulling it down. The sand particles are heavier and more compact than water molecules, causing them to settle at the bottom.
What happen when sand mixed with water?
Nothing - sand and water do not react because sand is relatively inert. The sand will sink to the bottom of the container because it is significantly heavier than the water.
What heavier sand or water?
water
What is heavier bottle of water or cup of water?
A cup of sand, sand sinks in water, thus its heavier.
What is heavier 1 gallon of water or 1 pound of sand?
1 gallon of water is heavier than 1 pound of sand. Water has a density of 8.34 pounds per gallon, so 1 gallon of water weighs more than 1 pound of sand.
Is 5 gallons of water heavier than 5 gallons of sand?
Five gallons of sand would actually weigh more than five gallons of water.
Does sand mix evenly with water?
No, sand does not mix evenly with water. Sand particles are insoluble and heavier than water, so they will settle at the bottom of the water, leading to a mixture with distinct layers.
Is sand heavier then salt?
Sand is heavier than salt That's why sand bags are used, rather than salt bags.
Is it true that sand sinks in water because water is more dense than sand?
No. Sand sinks in water because sand is more dense than water, not the other way around.
Which is heavier sand or clay?
Clay is heavier than sand since its density and its moisture content cause it to be heavier.
When you add sand to water why does the sand settle at the bottom of the water?
Sand is heavier then water (denser) so it sinks. If you add oil to water, oil is less dense (lighter) than water so it floats.
