A solid will float on any liquid that is more dense than it is. The volume of a piece of calcite weighing 35.6 g is 12.9 cm3. On which of the following liquids will the calcite float: carbon tetrachloride (density = 1.60 g/cm3), methylene bromide (density = 2.50 g/cm3), tetrabromoethane (density = 2.96 g/cm3), methylene iodide (density = 3.33 g/cm3)?
