Answer:
The statement is true. Water is more dense than kerosene.
Explanation:
- Density is defined as how closely packed a material is. It is a physical property of any substance.
- Density is expressed as mass per unit volume.
- Mass density of kerosene is .
- Mass density of water is .
- Mass density is more for water than that of kerosene.
- Kerosene floats on water surface because buoyancy balances its weight on water.
- Optically, kerosene is more dense than water because refractive index of kerosene is more than that of water. So, optical density of kerosene is more than water because kerosene is a complex carbon compound.
- Refractive index of kerosene = 1.44
- Refractive index of water = 1.33
