the density of oak wood is 0.70 (g/cm3)
You need to know the volume of the piece.After the tables the density of oak wood is 0,6-0,9 g/cm3.
Compare the density of the object in question to the density of water. If its density is less than water, it will float. For example, oak floats because its density is 0.7 g/cm³ and the density of water is 1 g/cm.If the density of an object is greater than water, it will sink.
I have just weighed a large piece of green oak and it is approx 1000Kg per cubic metre. But this figure will vary widle due to the density and the moisture content of the timber. We supply green oak buildings and there has allways been a difference in weight of pieces of oak of the same size. Hope this helps
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
The actual density of Oak Wood is about .75 g/cm3.
The population density of Oak Point Hollywood, Texas is approximately 621.5 people per square mile.

because the density of oak wood is less than the water and greater than the petrol.
It ranges from 0.6 to 0.9 grams per cm3.

Yes if the density of the wood is less than that of water, no if the wood is high density (like ironwood) in which case it sinks. Even common woods like oak will sink uner the proper circumstances. There is a thriving industry on the Ottawa River in Canada salvaging sunken logs which have been underwater for more than a hundred years.
Density isn't determined by the size of the specimen but by its mass per unit of volume. An oak branch has the same density as the whole tree it came from--the weights are vastly different, but density is the same.
The density of the wood would not be affected by being placed in water. However, the wood itself, with a density of about 0.77 gm/cm3 , would float.
