Which diagram number below represents the liquid layers in the cylinder? (K) Karo syrup (1.4 g/mL), (V) vegetable oil (0.91 g/mL,) (W) water (1.0 g/mL). Support your answer with a brief explanation.

Diagram 1

Explanation:

The correct diagram that depicts the liquid layers in the cylinder would be diagram 1.

The density of a substance is a measure of how heavy the substance is. Hence, a liquid that is heavier than water (with higher density) would sink in water while a liquid that is less dense than water would float on it.

Therefore, based on the density of the karo syrup (1.4 g/mL), it would take the bottom space in a cylinder, followed by water (1.0 g/mL) while vegetable oil with 0.91 g/mL would float on the former two.

The correct diagram is 1.

hydrogen is a compound or a single element and a element is a pure substence that cannot be separated into simpler subtances

clorine is a compound its a chemical substance that forms when two or more different elements combine

so both hydrogen and clorine are compounds
