The average savings account rate, for example, increased less than 1 percent, to 0.18 percent in January from 0.179 percent in December. The average one-year rate on certificates of deposit among the top nationwide banks increased by more than 2 percent, to 0.88 percent from 0.86 percent.
Since the density of water is 1 g/cm^3, therefore sand weighs 2.2 /1 = 2.2 times as much as water for a given volume. ie... 1 gallon of water weighs 8.35 lbs so 1 gallon of sand weighs 8.35 x 2.2 = 18.4 lbs so the sand weighs more...Source(s):Dr W Â· 8 years ago.he gallon of water would be lighter I believe because its a question of the densities of the two. Sand would be more dense than water, around 1600kg/m^3 and water is 1000 or 1026 for salt water.
In order for you to float, the water that moves out of the way to make room for you must weigh as much as you do. Since you are lighter (less dense) than water, the water pushes you up enough for you to float. The Dead Sea has a LOT of salt in it.Salt water is heavier (denser) than regular water. People can float in regular water, but since salt water is even denser, it is even easier to float in the Dead Sea. Adam. (published on 10/22/2007).
