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

Chemistry

sammy [17]3 years ago

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

Irina-Kira [14]
  • See charge on ion is -1 .

Hence it has taken 1 electron

Now first look at EC of Fluorine(F)

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow 1s^22s^22p^5

  • Now one electron added .hence no of electrons is 10now

Look at the EC

Which statements about the operation of an automated micropipettor are true? The volume dial has already been set, do not alter
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The correct statement is that the point of initial resistance is the level of depression that will fill the pipette with the desired volume of solution.

Explanation:

The pipette can be otherwise stored vertically or horizontally, this has nothing to do with the operation, and before the operation, the dial needs to be set. Also, the plastic pipette tip should not be ejected at all, thus, no new disposable plastic tip is required for each sample.

The correct statement is that the point of initial resistance is the level of depression that will fill the pipette with the desired volume of solution.
