Sand is denser than cotton, and density is an intensive property, so it doesn't matter if you have 1 kg or 1 g. Since density is mass/volume, the same mass of cotton will occupy a greater volume than that for sand, thus making the denominator larger, and the density less.
2.65 gm/cc
The mass of a volume of a material depends on its density. A cup of water is likely to have less mass than a cup of sand, because the density of rock is generally much greater than water, and sand is fine particles of rock.Sand can be packed into a cup at different densities, but even if only lightly poured into the cup, the air between the sand particles will not be sufficient to make the density lighter than that of water, as most rock is at least twice as dense as water.Some rocks are apparently less dense than water: they even float! But, this is because they have trapped air bubbles in them which lighten them, and once ground into sand, they will be much denser as the air is no longer trapped within the rock.Some examples of densities are:water 1 g/cm3granite 2.7 g/cm3sandstone 2.3 g/cm3
yes
it actually gold because Lead has a density of about 11.3 grams per cc, Gold has a density of about 19.3 grams per cc, so for a given volume, gold is much heavier than lead.
Put the sand in a dish and heat it above the melting point of lead. The lead will flow to the bottom and separate from the sand. Due to the high density of the lead, the sand will float on the molten lead. When the lead and sand cool, you can separate the two.
lead and water will occupy the same volume. however the Density of lead is 207.2 g/L (grams per liter) and the Density of H2O is only 18.02 g/L so if you had the same volume of lead and water the lead would be heavier. But if you had the same Weight of both water and lead the water would have a larger volume.

twelve pounds of Steel is more because it's density is less than Lead.
100 grams of water takes up more space than an equal weight of lead. That is why lead does not float in water.
That depends on the type and grade of the sand
Maximum value of dry density of river sand is 1.7 gm/cc
Rängs sand's population density is 1,451 people per square kilometer.
Depends on the size of the can and the density of the sand.
Determine the density of the sand. Determine the mass of the sand, and it's volume. Divide the mass by the volume and that gives you density. Then divide the sand's density by the density of water. That will give you the specific gravity of the sand. Because you divide densities, the units cancel out, and specific gravity does not have any units. For example, you determine the density of the sand to be 10g/cm3, and the density of pure water is known to be 1g/cm3. Divide 10g/cm3 by 1g/cm3. The g/cm3 cancel, and you are left with just the number 10. So in this example the specific gravity of sand is 10.
