What else can I help you with?
Does a solid piece of lead float in the water?
No, lead is a dense material and will sink in water. The density of lead is greater than the density of water, so it will not float.
Does lead float or sink in liquid mercury?
Lead will sink in liquid mercury because lead is denser than mercury. Mercury is a heavy liquid metal, so most metals will sink when placed in it.
If you drop a piece of lead into a pool of mercury will it sink or float?
Lead would float in mercury, as it is slightly less dense. (11.3 g/cc for lead, 13.5 g/cc for mercury)
Does lead weight sink or float?
Lead weight sinks in water since its density is greater than that of water.
Why do lead and marbles sink in water?
Lead and marbles sink in water because their density is greater than that of water. Objects with a higher density than water will sink, while objects with a lower density will float. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, which states that an object will float if it displaces an amount of water equal to its own weight.
What makes an object sink or float?
maybe the density of the objects
A cube measuring 2cm on each side weights 5g will it sink or float?
Calculate its volume. Divide mass by volume to get its density. Compare that to the density of water - assuming you want to figure out whether it will float or sink in water.
Why do object flout or sink?
If it is heaver than water (or what ever liquid you put it in) it will sink. Lead will sink. A cork will float.
Does a solid piece of lead float in the water?
No, lead is a dense material and will sink in water. The density of lead is greater than the density of water, so it will not float.
Does lead float on alcohol?
No.Lead has a very high density and will not float in alcohol
Does lead float or sink in liquid mercury?
Lead will sink in liquid mercury because lead is denser than mercury. Mercury is a heavy liquid metal, so most metals will sink when placed in it.
If you drop a piece of lead into a pool of mercury will it sink or float?
Lead would float in mercury, as it is slightly less dense. (11.3 g/cc for lead, 13.5 g/cc for mercury)
Do clothes float or sink?
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
Does lead weight sink or float?
Lead weight sinks in water since its density is greater than that of water.
