People are approximately 10% lighter in water compared to in air due to the buoyant force acting on their body. This buoyant force counteracts some of the gravitational force, making them feel lighter.

Which weighs more antifreeze perticides or gasoline in order?

Antifreeze, Pesticide then Gasoline. Antifreeze has to weigh right at as much as water to make sure they mix in the cooling system - no bubbling up. Pesticides are made from materials lighter than water but mixed with water as a medium, so they are lighter than antifreeze. Gasoline is very light (the lighter the fuel with the same energy content, the more efficient it is), it' lighter than water so it's definitely lighter than antifreeze. Since pesticides are mostly water, in all likelihood gasoline is lighter than the pesticides.antifreeze > pesticides > gasoline
