As far as I have seen, soap usually sinks in water. That means it is denser.but this is my opinion not law

What floats on top of dawn dish soap?
Anything less dense than dawn dish soap.
Is chalk less dense than salty water?
No, it is more dense. If it were less dense it would float.
Is chlorine less dense or more dense than water?
more dense
Is a ice cube more or less dense than liquid water?
Ice cubes are less dense than liquid water, which is why they float.
Is ice as dense as water?
Ice is less dense than water, that's why it floats.
Can bar soap float?
No, a bar of soap is to heavy to float on anything.
What makes ivory soap have less density than other soaps?
The reason Ivory soap is less dense than other soaps is that it is whipped while being made, so that it is full of air bubbles. The air makes the soap less dense so it floats on water. Please see the related link below.
Is ice less dense or more dense than water?
no
Is water less or more dense than water?
Ice is less dense than water
What floats on top of dawn dish soap?
Anything less dense than dawn dish soap.
What object is less dense than water?
A wooden block can be less dense than water.
Why does ivory soap floats?
The mixing process used in making Ivory Soap adds air into the bar, reducing its density and making it less dense than water.
How can you determine whether solid object is more dense or less dense than water?
If more dense, it will sink when put into water; if less dense it floats.
Can you make oil less dense than water?
Oil IS already less dense than water.
Is liquid water less dense then Ice?
No. Ice is less dense than water. Because ice is less dense it displaces less water and floats. Water is most dense at 4o C. any change in temperature, either up or down, lowers the density.
What makes soap float?
Ivory Soap is less dense than water. A bar of ivory soap weighs less than the volume of water it would displace if it were fully submerged. Since the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water, that produces a net upward force on it. It will rise in the water until enough of it is sticking out of the water so that the buoyant force is equal (and opposite) to the soap bar's weight. When that happens, it floats, just like in the commercials.
What fruit is less dense than water?
Easy, put a fruit in water and if it floats it is less dense than water.
