Ice cubes are added to a glass of pure water and a glass of pure alcohol. The ice would be – |
A. | at a higher level in water |
B. | at a higher level in alcohol |
C. | at the same level in both |
D. | floating in alcohol and sinking in water |
Answer» A. at a higher level in water | |
Explanation: Density of water is approx 1 g/ml; Density of Ice is approx 0.93g/ml; and Densityof 100% pure ethanol is 0.79g/ml. So the density of ice cubes is lesser than water, but higher than alcohol. So it will float in water, but sink in alcohol. |
