can you name two liquids heavier than water ? what will happen if water is poured in a container having any one of the liquid named by you?

Vegetable oil: If you pour water into a cup of vegetable oil it will sink below the layer of oil or to the bottom of the cup due to its higher density. vegetable oil and water do not mix because of their different polarities

Corn Syrup: if you pour water into a corn syrup the water will stay on top of the corn syrup layer due to the corn syrup's high density. They won't mix due to their density difference and instead form two distinct layers

Two liquids heavier than water are:

1. Mercury
2. Sulphuric acid

If water is poured into a container containing either mercury or sulfuric acid, the water will sink below the heavier liquid because of the difference in their densities. Since both mercury and sulfuric acid are denser than water, they will remain at the bottom of the container, and the water will float on top of them. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, where denser fluids exert more downward force and displace lighter fluids.
