50 ml of water is poured into a beaker. 50 ml of another liquid is poured into the same beaker. the beaker is left undisturbed for some time. after some time, it is observed that the liquid forms a clear layer on top of water. if the density of water is 1 g/cc, what could be the density of the second liquid?

Explanation:

Density is defined as mass per unit volume.

Since it is given that volume is same for both water and another liquid. Therefore, more is the mass more will be the density of liquid.

Liquid with less density will float on another liquid.

Thus, we can conclude that if density of water is given as 1 g/cc and liquid forms a clear layer on top of water this means that density of liquid is less than 1 g/cc.
