Answer:

It is insoluble

Explanation:

Solubility and floatability are different concepts:

Solubility depends of the polarity and chemical characteristics of the solute and solvent.  

Floatability depends of the density and volume of the solid, and the density of the liquid it's in.

Given that the unknown solid didn't disolve (you can see it on top of the liquid), it is insoluble in isopropanol.

Suggest a way that chemistry knowledge could help you make decisions about a claim
Tanya [424]

Answer and explanation;

-Knowledge of chemistry allows the public to make informed decisions.

-Since chemistry is the basis of everything in life, knowing the basics allows us to make smarter decisions. With a knowledge of chemistry, one can form better opinions about the day’s news. An individual will be able to distinguish the truth from the lies in environmental reporting, and better understand the meaning of a chemical spill.

-One can even better decide what your opinion on public policy should be by using your own knowledge of science rather than trying to figure out which politician or pundit is the least untrustworthy.
