How do droplets of the same size but of a less dense liquid behave compared to a more dense liquid?

Droplets of the same size but made from a less dense liquid will fall slower compared to those made from a more dense liquid due to the influence of gravity and drag forces acting on them. The density of a liquid affects the weight of the droplets; less dense liquids have a lower mass for the same volume, which results in less gravitational pull acting on them.

Additionally, the drag force, which opposes the motion of the falling droplet through the air, plays a significant role. In the case of less dense droplets, their lower mass means that the force of gravity has a reduced effect compared to more dense droplets, giving the drag force a relatively larger impact in slowing them down. Therefore, while both types of droplets are of equal size, the combination of lower density and the resulting dynamics leads to the conclusion that less dense droplets will indeed fall slower than more dense droplets in the same air conditions.

Temperature can affect the viscosity of liquids and drag forces, but when considering just the density of equally sized droplets, it is not necessary for determining their falling behavior. Thus, the correct understanding is that less dense liquid droplets fall slower than their denser counterparts.
