What is the difference between something that floats on water, and something that doesn't?  And which one is glycerin more similar to?

Dear Arkcon;

Your Hint doesn’t work this time!,    —  because Density doesn’t matter!

It seems you forgot a simple fact:  Glycerine is “full” miscible!:  "Solubility ”


Good Luck!

Yeah, but you could layer it, don't you ever see those layered alcoholic drinks?
