Water is denser than oil. When frozen, the oil sinks to the bottom. Why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
sammy [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: When water freezes it gets larger and becomes a solid but it still weighs the same as when it was a liquid form. When it becomes larger it takes up space but makes it less dense. Ok so getting to the point- oil unlike water becomes more dense when frozen so this is why oil sinks in water. Sorry if this was confusing but I hope it helped have a great day and god bless you :3

How many gallons of gasoline that is 5% ethanol must be added to 2,000 gallons of gasoline with no ethanol to get a mixture that
Amanda [17]

Answer:

V_1= 3000 gal

Explanation:

We have 3 solutions:

  • Solution 1 (with ethanol)
  • Solution 2 (no ethanol)
  • Final solution

V_f=V_1 + V_2

and for the ethanol:

V_f*0.03=V_1*0.05 + V_2*0

V_f=V_1 \frac{5}{3}

Combining:

V_1 \frac{5}{3}=V_1 + V_2

V_1 \frac{2}{3}= V_2

V_1= \frac{3}{2} V_2

If V2=2000 gal:

V_1= \frac{3}{2} 2000 gal

V_1= 3000 gal
