Question

The density of honey is 1.42 g/mL. If you poured honey into a glass of water, would it sink to the bottom or float on top? Explain how you know.

Answer 1

Answer:

The honey would sink to the bottom

Explanation:

A simple interpretation of Archimedes' principle is that, in water, the bodys with density lower than that of water will float on top of the water (That is, density <1g/mL). In the other way, a body with density higher than that of water will sink to the bottom.

As density of honey is higher than density of water:

The honey would sink to the bottom
