The density of a clay ball can vary depending on the type and composition of the clay. On average, the density of clay ranges from 1.9 to 2.6 grams per cubic centimeter.

Does a flattened pancake of clay have the same density as the same clay rolled into a ball?

Density is a characteristic of the substance. As long as nothing else gets into the substance, the density is always the same, whether you have a pinhead of the substance or a supertanker full of it, and whether it's in the shape of a football, a pasture patty, a pyramid, a 9-foot snake, or a life-size model of the Empire State Building. The density doesn't change.


Due to density a round ball of clay will sink why will the same clay that is stretched into a thin sheet float?

No, the clay will still be denser than the water. You are spreading it out over a larger area, and the clay will not be heavy enough to break the surface tension of the larger area of water. So, the answer is surface tension keeps it from sinking.

If a ball of clay size changes does its mass change as well?

If the ball is solid, and remains solid, then in order to increase its volume more material (mass) will have to be added to it. However, if the ball is hollow, then it may grow larger by thinning the walls of the ball and increasing its radius. In this case, no air is allowed to fill the increasing inner volume since that would lead to an increase in mass. This means that there will be a partial vacuum inside the ball, and depending on the strength of the clay, and the outside pressure, the walls may collapse. It would also be possible to increase the size (volume) of a solid ball of clay by reducing the density of the clay. The most common way to do this without magic is to heat it up.
