ANALYZE AND CONCLUDE
What is the relationship between density of
a liquid and its position in a density column?
Objects with a density
greater than 1 will
sink in water. Objects
with a density less
than 1 will float in
water.
1) Water, corn syrup
and oil are poured in
a column and mixed
together. Since they
are immiscible they
form layers. Predict
the order of the
layers and write
them in the picture.
2) DRAW RESULTS
oil
water
corn syrup
3) Conclusion:
The least dense
liquid is on top and
the most dense
liquid is on the
bottom.
