a test liquid has a density of 1.1g/mL. when you pour some of it into a cup of water, what will happen?

Okay, so it's slightly more dense than water, so the obvious answer is that it'll sink to the bottom of the cup. But wouldn't what the test liquid actually IS have a bearing on what happens? Suppose it ignites or vaporizes on contact with water? Suppose it's so hot that the water immediately boils, or so cold that the water immediately freezes? Suppose the test liquid is water another substance dissolved in it - would they mix? Just a few thoughts to be going on with...

How many gramd of the mixed oxide,Fe3O4,are formed when 6.00g of O2 react with Fe according to

3Fe+2O2--Fe3O4

A)43.4
B)86.8
C)174
d)21.7

Density of water: 1.0 g/mL

Principle:
If an objects density is greater than water density, it will sink in water.
If an object's density is lower than water density, it will float in water.

Now, what will the liquid do? (I think you can figure it out from what I said above) If not, you can ask.

Post your question above, not below another question.

When you pour a liquid with a higher density than water into a cup of water, the two liquids will not mix completely. The liquid with higher density will sink to the bottom while the less dense liquid (water) will stay on top.

To understand why this happens, we need to compare the densities of the two liquids. Density is the measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. In this case, the test liquid has a density of 1.1 g/mL, which means that for every milliliter of the liquid, it has a mass of 1.1 grams.

Water, on the other hand, has a density of approximately 1 g/mL at room temperature. Since the density of the test liquid (1.1 g/mL) is higher than that of water (1 g/mL), it means that the test liquid is more dense than water.

Due to the differences in density, the test liquid will be heavier and sink to the bottom of the cup, while the water will stay on top. This phenomenon is known as stratification, where the liquids form distinct layers based on their densities.
