Oil is denser than cork, so the cork would float.
A cork has a low density. It is lower then water. That causes it to float.
Yes.
a cork
A cork is able to float on water because it is less dense than the water. The reason why is because an object with more dense then itself it will float and an object with less density will sink in the fluid. HOWEVER if the object (such as the cork) has the same density, the object will neither float nor sink; instead it will stay at the same level in the fluid. So TECHNICALLY it is considered floating. So corks count as floating because it has less dense than the water. Sources: (Science: Glenco textbook)
because cork is less dense than water
Cork floats because it is less dense than the liquid in which it is floating.
Because cork is less dense than water.
Cork is a light weight wood product that will float in water.
