Why DOESNT ice float. I just had a burger, fries, and a mug of root beer at the local A&W. I was given a chilled glass mug and I poured my own drink. I got the ice from the soft drink dispensor, but

That's weird. My first thought was the sugar solution changed the density allowing it, but I realized that makes things even more buoyant. I tried heating some water and mixing in sugar. Ice cubes we

It has water in it, but the frothiness from the carbonation makes the water, flavorings and froth mixture less dense than the ice. At least that's my guess. mjb. _____________________________________

Perhaps there was enough CO2 in the Root Beer being released that the fluid couldn't support the ice. Don't you know you are not supposed to put ice in Root Beer anyway:) Mark Nashville -- Original M

Nope, corn syrup is also higher density than water. In fact, normal ice does float on normal root beer (I worked for awhile as a soda jerk many years ago). So I'm also at a loss to explain what Stev

My vote/guess. The thickness of the root beer, which allows a nice head to form, keeps the CO2 bubbles suspended lowering the density of the liquid. Don't know if its confirmed, but gas released from

Now there ya go, ruining a perfectly good ale by diluting it! I guess if you do the test fast the ice won't melt too much. Now the question becomes what do you do with the ale? Peace, Pat Thusly spak

You might want to try this test again, just to see if it was a one time event. I'm betting that the ice was stuck to start with, then got broken loose when you got to the bottom. Peace, Pat Thusly sp

You know, that's works. http://www.popsci.com/diy/article/2006-07/ice-capades Though in this case, I'm going with the ice stuck to the glass theory. -Steve ___________________________________________

Since all experiements must be repeatable, probably ruin a whole 6 pack. But after two you probably won't notice or care. Peter T. _______________________________________________ Shop-talk@autox.team

Thanks to all who replied. I'm still shaking my head. But I think the possibilities are covered. The mug did come out of the freezer so it is possible that changed the rootbeer. I had wondered if car

My guess is the ice was either frozen to the bottom of the glass or perhaps stuck there by something akin to surface tension. I know I have seen ice stay at the bottom of a glass after the drink has

The short answer is that the ice was stuck in the bottom of the frosty mug The longer answer is that the second visit resulted in the majority of the ice stayed at the bottom of the mug, but a few ch
