You might double check your question. Graphite is a carbon compound with a density estimated between 2.09–2.25 g/cc, and thus it has higher density than water and will sink. Graffiti is typically paint, but it can also include surface scratches and etc. Without better specification it would be hard to specify a density. However, dry paint may have a density of 3-4 g/cc which is also higher than water.

Does kerosene float on water-?
no, beacuse there is more sugars patick present in it so it floats
Can Antimony float in water?
No, the density of antimony is more than six times greater than the density of water so it will sink in water.
What is the denser than water?
The density of water is dependent on the temperature. However, 4 °C, the density of water is exactly 1 gram per milliliter (1 g/mL). This is the same as saying the density is 1 kilogram per liter (1 kg/L). For a table of the density of water at several other temperatures, see the Web Link to the left of this answer. Many things are more dense than water. Almost all metals are more dense, for instance. Glass and many plastics are also more dense than water.
An egg sinks in fresh water but floats in a strong solution of salt why?
because following the density principle, the density of the egg compared to the density of the tap water is lesser....(the density principle states that an object or substance with lesser density will float on the surface of the substance or object which has the greater density...).....now,,,with salt,,, salt makes the density of the tap water to increase and increases also the salinity of the water making the egg float because the density of the water with salt is now greater than the density of the egg.... An egg will float when the density of the water is greater than the density of the egg. Adding salt increases the density of a salt water solution. Whether the egg floats or sinks depends on the condition of the egg as well as the amount of salt in the water. If an object is LESS dense than the solution that it is in, then it WILL float. If an object is MORE dense than the solution it is in, then it WILL NOT float. An egg is more dense than regular water; therefore, the egg will sink. But when you add salt to the water, you are making the solution more dense. The salt water's density becomes greater to the point that it is more dense than the egg. Because the egg is now LESS dense than the water, it floats.
Explanation why egg float in salt water?
Because the salt water is denser than pure water.
Which has more density water or oxygen?
Water
Does salt water around the world have the same density?
No, it depends on the volume of water that can dissolve the salt. If the volume of water is more then it dissolves more salt and the density will be more and if the volume of the water is less then it dissolves less salt and the density will be less.
Why do lighter objects float higher in water?
It's because of the density of the object; for example wood floats in water because its density is less then the density of water, and metal sinks because its density is more then the density of the water.
If pure water has a density of one gram per milliliter why does an egg sink in it but float in salt water?
That indicates that the average density of an egg is greater than the density of pure water but less than that of salt water. Salt water has more density the regular/pure water and the more salt you add the more it floats.
Oil floats on water because its density is what on water?
Type your answer here... the oil has more density
Why is density less than the density of water float or sink in water?
For floating in water: density under 1 g/cm3 For sinking in water: density more than 1 g/cm3
Does boron have more density than water?
Boron density: 2,08 g/cm3 Water density: 1 g/cm3
Why does some things float on water while others dont?
Some objects will float on water as the density of the object is less than that of water. Conversely, if an object is more dense than the density of water, then it will sink.
What is an example of a density?
ice floating on top of water because water has more density than ice.
How cooling water effects its density HELPPPP?
When you cool water its density will increase as it will become more dense.
Why is density of water more in deep water?
The density of water increases with depth due to the increase in pressure. As water molecules are packed closer together under high pressure, the density of water increases. Therefore, in deep water where the pressure is higher, the density of water is also higher.
Which one has more density water or salt water?
salt water
