Question:

Chemistry - will acetone sink or float if poured into water?

I know acetone is miscible with water, alcohol, and ether. So if it IS miscible (able to be mixed with) does that mean it will sink? Or do you think I should put "neither" because nor does it sink or float; it mixes.

Not the easiest question - but I'm sure there's a good chemistry person out there! Thanks!

  1. Miscible means it will mix, up to a certain point.  


  2. Neither, it is in equal parts throughout the water.
