When placed in water ice rises to the top of the liquid. Unlike most solids that sink when placed in their liquid forms ice floats because -?
There are microscopic bubbles of air trapped in the ice - making it lighter than the water.

What happens to a ball when it is placed in a liquid that is denser than the ball?
It floats.
What happens to an object when it is placed in a more dense liquid or gas?
it floats
Why the Diet Coke floats?
i dont know why it floats i think because its more soda in it and the can i lighter and coke is heavier
A substance floats or sinks in another because of its relative?
density. If the substance is less dense than the liquid it is placed in, it will float. If the substance is more dense than the liquid, it will sink.
How does an object's density determines whether it floats or sinks?
An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
How does an object's density determine whether it floats or sinks?
An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
Does lead float or sink in liquid mercury?
Lead will sink in liquid mercury because lead is denser than mercury. Mercury is a heavy liquid metal, so most metals will sink when placed in it.

Do rubber band float Why?
Rubber bands float for the same reason that anything floats. It has a density less than the liquid in which it is placed.
Does ice float because water becomes more or less dense when its frozen?
The structure of frozen water (ice) is less dense than the random arrangement of the water molecules in liquid water, thus ice floats because water becomes less dense when it is frozen. Because of buoyancy forces, an object placed in a liquid will float if it is less dense than the liquid and sink if it is more dense.
Will ice float in dish liquid?
Yes, ice will float in dish liquid because ice is less dense than liquid water. When ice is placed in dish liquid, it displaces an equal volume of liquid, causing it to float.
