Hexane (C6H14, density = 0.766 g/cm3), perfluoro-hexane (C6F14, density = 1.669 g/cm3), and water are immiscible liquids; that is, they do not dissolve in one another. You place 10 mL of each in a graduated cylinder, along with pieces of high-density polyethylene (HDPE, density = 0.97 g/cm3), polyvinyl chloride(PVC, density = 1.36 g/cm3), and Teflon (density = 2.3 g/cm3). None of these common plastics dissolves in these liquids. Describe what you expect to see.
