You are carrying out an investigation to determine how your pet Basilisk Lizard is able to "walk" across the surface of a liquid. The two liquids you are investigating are water and oil. The water is H2O and the oil is made up of really long-chain hydrocarbons.

A. Based upon the description above, come up with a very specific question for this investigation.

B. Based upon knowledge of intermolecular and intramolecular bonding, hypothesize an answer to the question you created.

C. Based upon your knowledge of intermolecular and intramolecular bonging, give reasons for your hypothesis.

D. Design a fair experiment to test your hypothesis.

Density is a measure of mass per volume. The average density of an object is equal to its total mass divided by its total volume. A dense material will have less volume than a less dense material of equal mass.

Water is denser than oil. The basilisk lizard walk across the surface of a liquid because of its less weight, i.e., less dense than any of the liquids. For this hypothesis, we need to do an experiment which can test the hypothesis. Hence, the option D is correct.
