A glass cylinder contains five liquid layers: mercury (d = 13.59 g/ml.), bromine (d = 3.12 g/ml.), chloroform (d = 1.49 g/ml.), water (d = 1.00 g/ml), ether (d = 0.708 g/ml.). If a solid object (d = 3.43 g/ml.) is dropped into the cylinder, where does it come to rest? A) on top of the chloroform layer B) on top of the bromine layer C) on top of the water layer D) on the bottom of the cylinder E) on top of the mercury layer An example of a mixture is: A glass cylinder contains five liquid layers: mercury (d = 13.59 g/ml.), bromine (d = 3.12 g/ml.), chloroform (d = 1.49 g/ml.), water (d = 1.00 g/ml), ether (d = 0.708 g/ml.).
