The density of dirty water can vary depending on the amount and type of contaminants present in the water. On average, dirty water tends to have a higher density than clean water due to the presence of suspended solids and other impurities. The density of dirty water can be measured using appropriate instruments and techniques.
Depends on the dirt and how much of it is in suspension.
technically, the water density will only change with the dissolved solids, but for sake of argument assume the total density includes the suspended solids.
Density would be the total weight of the water and suspended solids divided by the total volume.
If you have 1000 grams of pure water and mix 10 grams of fine 'dirt' in it, some will dissolve, some dirt will stay in suspension, at least for a time. total weight is 1100 grams. volume will increase slightly, but because the dirt is much denser than the water (and some will dissolve in it) the total volume won't increase as much as the weight, so the overall density will be higher.
All very vague, but it truly depends on the nature of the 'dirt', how much there is, how dense it is, and how soluble it is.

Does boron have more density than water?
No, the density of boron is lower than the density of water. Boron has a density of about 2.34 grams per cubic centimeter, while water has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter.
How does the density of warm water compare with the density of cold water?
Warm water is less dense than cold water because heat causes the water molecules to move farther apart, decreasing its density. This is why warm water tends to rise and cold water sinks.
The density of water is decrease or increase?
The density of water decreases as the temperature increases until it reaches 4 degrees Celsius. Above this temperature, the density decreases as water turns into steam.
If gasoline is poured into liquid water will in float or sink?
Gasoline is less dense than water, so it will float on top of the water rather than sinking.
Is the rain clean water or dirty water?
Rainwater is generally considered clean as it falls from the sky. However, it can pick up pollutants and contaminants as it travels through the air and lands on surfaces, making it potentially dirty depending on the environment it passes through. It is always advisable to collect and filter rainwater before consuming or using it for various purposes.
Is water or salt water heavier?
Salt water is heavier than fresh water. The salt dissolved in salt water increases its density, making it heavier than pure water.
Clean water is added to a tank full of dirty water. After some time the tank is full of clean water. Dirty water disappears. What is the principle and how does it work?
The principle is 'dilution': with the first addition of clean water to dirty water, the dirty water becomes less dirty because it is diluted by the clean water. With the continued addition of clean water to dirty water, eventually the dirty water will be completely diluted and there will be no dirty water left; it will all be replaced by clean water.
How will a alka-seltzer tablet react in dirty water?
Alka Seltzer is a compound that reacts to liquids. It all depends on the density of the liquid to determine how fast or slow the alka seltzer will react, and how violent it will erupt. With dirty water, it will do the same as water, yet be slower, due to it being more dense.
When was Dirty Water created?
Dirty Water was created in 1966.
Why do parrots dirty their water?
because they want dirty water
What is Dirty Fuel?
dirty water
What is the comparison of density to density of an equal volume of water?
If the density of a substance is greater than the density of water, it will sink in water. If the density of a substance is less than the density of water, it will float on water.
Why do countries have dirty water?
Because the mud in the water makes it dirty.
Do tad pols have to live in clean water or dirty water?
dirty
Who sings dirty water?
The Standells Released the Album "Dirty Water" in 1966 on the Sundazed record Label with track #5 as "Dirty Water".
Does dirty water and salt makes fresh water?
No all that does is make the dirty water salty.
Does clean water evaporate faster then dirty water?
Clean water and dirty water evaporate at the same rate. The evaporation process depends on factors such as temperature, humidity, and surface area exposed to air, rather than the cleanliness of the water.
