It will sink, African ebony is prized for its intensely black core. With a wood-density of 64 lb/cu. ft (1,030 kg/cu. m), it has a specific gravity of 1.03 and will not float in water.
If the density of any material is larger then that of water, the buoyancy force of water will not support that object. ie the object will not float. Also, if an small/large holes are present in the object, they may fill with water to increasing the mass, but not the volume, causing the density to increase. Generally, wood, unless saturated with water, will float. Ebony could be one that doesnt float.
a block of ebony will sink in water because it's density is 1.2 g/cm3 and the water's density is 1g/cm3
It may or may not float. It depends on whether the entire piece of wood is less dense than the water. Most wood is and will float on water. Very dense woods, such as ebony and cocobolo are more dense than water and will sink.
Teak, ebony, mahogany.

Ebony wood is so dense that it will not float in water. Its trees are found mostly in southeast Asia.
No. Ebony is one of the few woods that doesn't float in water. Oil is lighter than water so ebony won't float in that either.

It depends on the species of wood. Most float but some types of ebony and lignum vitae have a density greater than water and will sink.

why wood coated from gum sink float on water
Ebony is a type of wood, but "Ebony" is Black.
If the density of wood is 2g per CCm does it float in water?
Ebony is a type of wood.
