Saturn. It has been said that if you could find enough water and a large enough bath, Saturn would float in it.
Note: Jupiter is not the correct answer:
Any object whose density is less than water will float in water.
In theory; Saturn, a gas planet, is light enough to float on a body of water big enough to contain the ringed giant. The rings would not float, but, the main body of Saturn probably would.
Saturn has a density that is less than that of water.

It is said that if you could find an ocean on Earth large enough to accommodate it, Saturn would float. That is, Saturn's average density is less than the density of water. Turns out it's the only planet with an average density less than 1.000, that is, less than the density of water.
Saturn:)Saturn is the least dense of the gas giants, even out of all of the planets in our solar system. Its average density is around 0.7 g/cc (less than water)
Saturn has a very low density overall, on average it is 0.7 g/cm3, less than the density of water. It is the least dense planet in our solar system.
Density of our Moon: 3.346 (g/cm3). Density of planet Mercury: 5.427 (g/cm3). So, yes, it is less dense.
Yes Saturn has less density than water. Thus if you could put Saturn in a large pool of water, it will float.

All the gas giants; in our Solar System, Saturn has the lowest density (less than the density of water).
Saturn, with a density of 0.7 kg cm-3
The density of Saturn is less than the density of water on Earth. But you'll never see Saturn float, because that would require a really gigantic pool.

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.

Density is mass divided by volume. Saturn has a big mass AND a big volume. In this case the effect if the big volume is enough to "beat " the effect of the big mass and Saturn's density is less than water.
Volatile liquids such as alcohol and ethanol have less density than water. They also evaporate faster than water does.
