Using the internet,look up the density of liquid water, ice, and ethanol. Using those values, explain your results. density of water - 1 density of ice - 0.9 density of ethanol - 0.7

To conduct this lab, we used beaker with water, beaker with ethanol, and salt. Water dissolves more substance than any other liquid because of its polarity. When we added salt in a water, most of the amount dissolved in a water, while very less amount remain undissolved and settled at the bottom of the beaker. Ethanol cannot dissolve some of the substances, because it is non-polar in nature. Therefore, when we add salt in ethanol, most of the amount remain undissolved and only fewer particles dissolved in the solution. Using your knowledge of specific heat, explain why there is a difference in time between the two solution.
To conduct this lab, we used beaker filled with water and ethanol. Specific heat defined as the amount of heat use by a substance to increase it temperature by 1 degree celsius or the amount of heat that substance lose to decrease it temperature by 1 degree celsius. When we placed both beakers on the hot plate, the beaker which had water boiled faster than the ethanol because water absorbs energy before it begins to
