THE BODIES
Density is the relationship between mass and volume, which allows measurement.
the lightness or heaviness of a substance In the case of our experiment we will see the
density in liquids follows the principle: 'two liquids are immiscible'
(they cannot be mixed) when they have different densities
For that we will need:
Unable to perform action on the provided link.
Materials:
Transparent vase, a tube of
test or a test tube
Vegetable dye
Flashlight
Honey or corn syrup
Liquid detergent
Water
Oil
Alcohol
PROCEDURE:
To achieve the success of this experiment, I need to take into account the density of the liquids to
pour them into the glass accordingly, we can use dyes to make it more eye-catching; for
so, the one that is denser below and the less dense above:
Then the pouring order will be:
Honey or corn syrup
Liquid detergent
3. Water
4. Oil
5. Alcohol
To visualize the colors, we can shine a flashlight on it, and it will appear like a rainbow.
BENEFITS:
By knowing this property of bodies, especially liquids, we can explain why the
bodies float, how can we prevent water pollution from the oil we use in
the kitchen knows how to handle this waste when we fry and get burnt oil.
We can also use this principle to make eco-friendly candles like this one.

There are three phenomena that occur inside the glass while the candle burns: (1) change of the
chemical composition of gases, (2) temperature changes and (3) vapor condensation
of water as the candle goes out.
In the reaction, the wax of the candle combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide.
carbon and water (and some other things like elemental carbon or 'carbon dust' that we can
forget. In order for the reaction to be adjusted, the paraffin must provide carbon and hydrogen in
the same proportion as methane (see figure). The classical explanation focuses on the side
left of this reaction to say that oxygen is disappearing as it
produce the reaction until it is exhausted and only nitrogen remains (4/5 of the original amount)
due to the composition of the air.
Therefore, the water rises to fill that gap, which is 1/5 of the original volume. It is obvious that this
explanation does not take into account that for each molecule of O2 that disappears, one appears and
more than half of gases (half of H2O and half of CO2). Seen this way, rather than decreasing the pressure
it should increase. More importantly for what we will see next is that it should do it
continuously, at the pace at which the reaction occurs.
When the candle goes out and stops providing heat, the gas contracts, and it is that contraction that
that generates a decrease in pressure that causes the water to rise.
