Density is mass divided by volume. Saturn has a big mass AND a big volume. In this case the effect if the big volume is enough to "beat " the effect of the big mass and Saturn's density is less than water.

What planet has density less than water?

Saturn is the planet with a density less than water. Its average density is about 0.687 g/cm^3, whereas the density of water is 1 g/cm^3. This low density is due to Saturn being mostly composed of hydrogen and helium gases.


Which planet has the lowest average density?

Saturn:)Saturn is the least dense of the gas giants, even out of all of the planets in our solar system. Its average density is around 0.7 g/cc (less than water)

What planet that a lower density than the density of water that causes it to float?

Saturn is the planet with a lower density than water, causing it to float if there were a large enough body of water for it to be placed in. Its average density is less than that of water due to its composition of mostly hydrogen and helium gases.

What is the least dense planet?

Saturn is the least dense planet, only 0.7 g/cc on average (less than water's density). If you could put Saturn in bathwater, it would float.


What is mean density on Saturn?

The mean density of Saturn is about 0.687 grams per cubic centimeter. This low density is due to the planet's composition primarily of hydrogen and helium gases, with a small rocky core at its center.


Why is Saturn the only planet that can float?

Saturn is a gas giant planet, with a less-dense core than some other planets. The planet's overall density, is less than the density of water. Hence the quite correct old saying in astronomy" "If you could find a lake big enough to put it in, Saturn would float".
