How do you think the amount of a material affects its tendency to sink or float?

All by itself, the 'mass' of an object ... the amount of material in it ... doesn't tell you
anything about whether it will sink or float. An AlkaSeltzer tablet and a large boulder
both sink, but a duck and a large steel battleship both float. There must be more to it.
