Question

Determine whether each substance will sink or float in corn syrup, which has a density of 1.36 g/cm3. Write “sink” or “float” in the blanks. Gasoline:  Water:  Honey:  Titanium: 

Answer 1

Explanation:

• A substance will floats if it is having lower density than the density of the liquid in which it is placed.
• A substance will sink if it is having density greater than the density of the liquid in which it is kept.

Density of corn syrup = $1.36 g/cm^3$

1) Density of gasoline = $0.748 g/cm^3$

Density of the gasoline is less than the the density of corn syrup which means it will float in corn syrup.

2) Density of water = $1 g/cm^3$

Density of the water is less than the the density of corn syrup which means it will float in corn syrup.

3) Density of honey = $1.45 g/cm^3$

Density of the gasoline is more than the the density of corn syrup which means it will sink in corn syrup.

4) Density of titanium = $4.506 g/cm^3$

Density of the titanium is more than the the density of corn syrup which means it will sink in corn syrup.
