I think no but I think Saturn have less density than water and it can float on water.
------------------------------------------
Venus has a density of 5.24, where water has a density of 1.0. All the "terrestrial" planets are typically as dense as rocks; that's why they are sometimes called "rocky" planets.
The gas giant planets have much lower densities; 1.33 for Jupiter, 1.32 for Neptune, and 0.69 for Saturn. So yes, if Saturn were a uniform solid of that density, it would "float". However, the comparison is silly, because Saturn is mostly gas; hydrogen and helium. You have to compress these a WHOLE LOT to get densities as high as they are!

When you compare the density of water or air with another object how can you tell which has the lower or higher density?
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
What is mean density on Saturn?
The density of Saturn is less than the density of water, about 70% of water's density in fact.
The density of ice is?
less than that of water
Is water more or less dense than oil?
The density of water is greater than that of oil.
How does the density of ice compare to the density of water?
Ice is less dense than liquid water.
How are mass and volume related to the sinking and floating of an object?
An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water.

What liquid has a density less than water?
Volatile liquids such as alcohol and ethanol have less density than water. They also evaporate faster than water does.

Which has less density a cork or water?
A cork is less denser than water because cork is floating on water so it will have less density than water
How do you know if a compound has a density less than 1 gmL?
If it floats in water, it has a density less than water. Density of water is 1.0 g/mL
Why is density needed to know whether a substance will float or sink in water?
It's actually pretty easy. If the density of the substance is higher than the density of water, the object will sink. If the density of the substance is lower than the density of water, the object will float. Be aware though that various substances may have dissolved into the water, thus changing its density. For example, seawater has a different density than fresh water.
Is it true that when the weight of an object is less than the density of water that object the object will float?
The weight does not determine if an object will float in water. If an object has a DENSITY that is more than the density of water then it will sink, if it's density is less than the density of water it will float.
What is floats in water What density?
An object will float in water if it has LESS density than the water.
Can thermocol float?
in water yes its density is less than density of water
How do densities of the things that floatrdbcompare to the density of water?
their density is less than that of water
Why does a coin sink and a boat float?
An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.
How do you know whether a substance has a greater density than water?
If it sinks in water then it has a higher density than water. If it floats on water surface then its density is less than water.
