It depends on the density on the item. The density of water is 1.0 so if the density of the item is lower then that it will float, if the density is greater then that, then the item will sink.
If an objects density is greater than the waters density it will sink but if it's density is less than the waters density it will float
no the shape of a substance does not determine if it will sink or float. The density of the substance determines if it will sink or float. If the object weighs more than 1.0 g it will sink. If it weighs less than 1.0 g it will float.
If the density of the object is less than the density of the water it is placed in, the object will float and vice versa.
objects with higher density than water sink, ones with a lower density float
If the density of an object is lower than water then it will float, if the density is higher it will sink.

This depends on the density of this item: more denser than water-sink, less denser than water-float.
no the shape of a substance does not determine if it will sink or float. The density of the substance determines if it will sink or float. If the object weighs more than 1.0 g it will sink. If it weighs less than 1.0 g it will float.
If an objects density is less than the density of what it is put in it will float. If the objects density is greater it will sink.
If the density of the object is greater than that of the liquid then it will sink. If the density of the object is lower it will float. To calculate density; density=mass(g)/volume(cm3)
If it is in water, the density for water is 1. If the object is less than 1, it will float. If it is more than more, it will sink. To find the density, you do mass divided by volume.
The density of the object (mass/volume) compared to the density of the liquid.
If the density of the object is less than the density of the water it is placed in, the object will float and vice versa.
When you have the density of both the object and the fluid, just see which has a higher density. If the object has a higher density than the fluid, the object will sink. If the object has a lower density than the fluid, 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.
