Why a tin lid floats in a bowl of water but when it is crushed into a ball it sinks?
The surface tension of the water stops it from breaking the surface so long as it does not cut through it. The irregular shape and weight of a metal ball made from the same thing cuts the surface tension and breaks the electronic bond that exists between the water molecules at the surface.
