No, it sinks.
That is an absolute answer for an ideal piece of Limestone and pure water. However in day to day life we we can observe limestone floating on warter if
a) limestone is porous with air trapped in it , and/or
b) water is not pure containing heavier substances dissolved in it like salts etc.

Limestone is not that porous! In fact most limestone is barely porous at all.
It is correct that solid objects are more buoyant in brine or similar aqueous solutions more dense than pure water, but the difference is by no means enough to make a piece of rock float.
Octane is less dense than water, so it will float on the surface of water.
Is limestone in well water harmful to the human body
an egg can float in salt water.
no an egg does not float in regular water.
Limewater IS dissolved in water. Limestone dissolves in water because the mineral calcite it comprises of is soluble. This is why limestone dissolves in water.
One word answer: No
No, granite is usually heavier than limestone. Granite is a denser and more compact rock, composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica, while limestone is a sedimentary rock primarily made of calcite.
Limestone is called limestone because it has lime in it from the sea water it if formed in.
You need to specify the quantities of both the limestone and the water.
Jeremejevite does not float on water.
Yes, water can float on water. This is because of surface tension, which allows objects with a lower density than water to float on its surface. Items like boats or water bugs can float because of this phenomenon.
fish does float on water!
There are tents designed to Float in water. But not all tents designed to float.
Soil floats on water!
A styrofoam cup will float in water because styrofoam is less dense than water, causing it to displace water and float.
No, feldspar does not float in water because it is more dense than water. When placed in water, feldspar will sink to the bottom.
Octane is less dense than water, so it will float on the surface of water.
