The following liquids are poured together in a beaker: alcohol (density=0.79), corn
syrup (density=1.38), water (density=1.0), and cooking oil (density=0.93). Which of these
liquids will sink to the bottom of the beaker?
alcohol
water
cooking oil
corn syrup

Respuesta :

Answer:

Syrup

Explanation:

The arrangement according to density; Syrup, water,cooking oil and alcohol.

The higher the density the heavier the substance, therefore the substance with the highest density, sinks first and the substance with the lowest density is left to float.

When alcohol, corn syrup, water and cooking oil are poured together in a beaker, corn syrup will sink to the bottom.

We have 4 liquids poured together in a beaker:

  • alcohol (density=0.79)
  • corn syrup (density=1.38)
  • water (density=1.0)
  • cooking oil (density=0.93)

Density is an intrinsic property of matter, equal to the quotient between the mass and the volume. When referring to liquids, liquids with lower densities will float over liquids with higher densities.

Thus, for these 4 liquids, the order from bottom to top is: corn syrup, water, cooking oil, alcohol.

When alcohol, corn syrup, water and cooking oil are poured together in a beaker, corn syrup will sink to the bottom.
