Does ice float because it is less dense than water?

Icecubes float in water because they are less dense than water.

candles float because it is less dense than water all thi8ngs that are less dense float

Because it is less dense than water. Dense objects go down while less dense objects float.

things float when their mass is less than that of the water, meaning they are less dense than the water. hollow objects always float because open air is less dense than water

Because it is less dense then water

Because water is more dense then our bodies so when things are more dense they sink to the bottom and when they are less dense they float to the top

The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called buoyancy. Ice floats in water because it is less dense than water.

It will float because it is less dense than the water.

Float, because it is less dense than water.

Items float on water because they are less dense than water that it floats on.

Because they are less dense than the water.

The egg floats in water because it is less dense than the water and cannot fall below the surface. Anything that is less dense than water will float.

An object must be less dense than water in order to float on water.

Because it is less dense.

because it's less dense .

Pears do not float in water because the pear is more dense than the water. The pear has a high water content, therefore making it more dense. For example, apples float because they are less dense than the water.

The structure of frozen water (ice) is less dense than the random arrangement of the water molecules in liquid water, thus ice floats because water becomes less dense when it is frozen. Because of buoyancy forces, an object placed in a liquid will float if it is less dense than the liquid and sink if it is more dense.

because cork is less dense than water

Because the sponge is less dense than the water

Because wax is less dense than water.

For an object to float in water it has to be less dense than the water.

because ice has less dense than water

It floats on water because it is less dense than the water.

no it won't, water was a density of 1g/1cm3 and wood has a density of 0.4g/1cm3 therefore wood can float in water because it is less dense then water. something like concrete (density of 2.3g/1cm3) will sink because it is more dense then water. so in able to float the fluid has to be more dense then the object.

If it does, indeed, float, you can safely assume that the reason is because it is less dense than water.

Yes because it is less dense that water.

Because it is less dense than water.

Because it's less dense than water.

Dust floats in water because it is less dense than the water.

Pepper floats because it is less dense than water.

Because oil is less dense than water.

Because ice and oil are less dense that water.

A body floats in water because it is less dense than water.

Because when water freezes it becomes less dense therefore it can float on top of water.

Under normal circumstances, ice does float in water because it is less dense.

Icebergs float in the ocean because the iceberg is less dense than the water.

they float on water when they are in motion because their mass is spread out over a greater area of water and are less dense.

Any submerged object that have less dense than the water it will float. Therefore your submerged object probably will float because it has less dense than the water. I hope my answer helped you.=)

Because it is the lightist less thick liquid less dense

Yes, because it is less dense.

Because CO2 is less dense than water.

it depends on how dense the object is if it is more dense than the water it will sink if it is less dense than the water it will float.

Because Lithium is less dense than water

Because the piece of wood is less dense than the water

The eggs float to the top in salt water because they are less dense than the salt water.

Nothing because oil is less dense than water. An object that floats in oil would have to be less dense than the oil, therefore making it less dense than water, thus there is no material that could float in oil and sink in water.

Well, antyhing that is less dense than water will float in water. So knowing this we can assume that an apple is less dense than water.

because tin foil is less dense then water so it makes it float!!!!

For something to float in water, the object must be less dense than water. Humans float in water because the body is collectively less dense than the water itself. If the body were completely water, it would not sink or float, just stay suspended in the water.

Yes, ice is less dense than water. Ice will float on water because it is less dense than that water. Two related questions are linked below, and you can learn why ice is less dense than water by following those links.
