Whether an object will sink or float?
To know this you first need to find the density of the object and the density of the fluid on which the the object shall be kept. If the density of the fluid is more than the object's density then the object will float. The object will sink if the reverse happens.
What happens to an object if it has a density that is less than 1 gram?
It floats
What happens to an objects density when it obsorbs water?
If the object's original density is less than water (sponge, for example) - the density will increase. If the object's original density is greater than that of water (though I cannot think of anything that fits that category that is porous enough to absorb water), the density will decrease.
What factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?
An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.
Is density a property of an object or a property of the substance the object or a property of the substance the object is made of?
Density (or more properly Relative Density) is an elemental property. An object made from one or more elements will have a density related to the density of the elements.
What happens if the magma has the same density as the rock around it?
It contracts:)
What happens if an object of higher density is placed in water?
Higher than what ?? If the object's density is higher than the density of water, then the object sinks in the water.
What happens to an object's density when it heats up and expands?
The density decreases.

If you double the volume of an object what happens to the density?
It is halved.
If you add pressure to an object what happens to its density?
the density will increase because there will be less space
WHAT happens to a solid object with a density that is less than the density of water when it is placed in water?
It floats
What happens to the density of a heated iron block?
The density will decrease because the heated metal contracts and its particles slow down.
What happens to the density of an object when you break it in half?
Assuming the object is the same straight through - nothing.
What happens to an object in water if its density is less than that of water?
it will float
What happens to an object if it has a density that is less than 1 gram?
It floats
What happens to the density of a object if you cut it in half?
The density stays the same. The reason why is because the density of something is mass divided by volume, so if you cut the object in half, it will not change at all. :) ((and yes the other answer was gibberish lol.))
