1. If the six substances listed below were poured into a beaker, where would they settle based on their densities? Draw a density
tower and label the layers in the beaker
Substance

Density)

1.42
0.33
1.03
0.02
2. You are going to drop each of the following three objects into the beaker in your
density tower, draw and label where the objects will settle.
cork: density -0.24 g/cm
marble: density - 2.5 g/cm
plastic bead: density -0.737 g/cm
3. Why do the substances not mix together, but instead form distinct layers? Explain
4. How do the substances layer in a specific order from top to bottom?
5. What determines whether an object sinks or floats?
6. Is density affected by the amount of the substance? For example, what would
happen if you added twice the amount (volume) of the least dense substance to the
density tower? Would it still remain on top or sink lower?
7. An object has a density that is greater than the density of water. How could you
make it float? Explain by giving a real-life example,

the correct answer: the index of refraction of the second medium is lower i tried this persons answer and it was wrong this person is lying

answer; somatic;

the right is separation by density .

take the blood which is a good example of a heterogeneous mixture.

blood is a vital liquid in our body, which transports oxygen from the air to our lungs so we can breathe. it is also used to eject wastes, such as carbon dioxide, to bring cells and molecules of the immune system to the tissues, and to spread hormones throughout the body. it corresponds to plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and hemoglobins combined.

in medical tests centrifugal force is used to separate the different components of the blood.

in general, the centrifugation will allow to separate and analyze the different components of the blood, to know if the rate of white blood cells in the blood of a patient, for example, is normal, and therefore to know if his system immune is integrity.

under the action of centrifugal force, the solid components in the blood are drawn to the bottom of the tube in which the blood is contained. the centrifugal force then acts as an accelerated settling. it separates plasma from red blood cells and white blood cells.
