Why don't mostsubstance float in air if they float in water?
It is waters greater density than air that allows some substances to float on water.
Does adding certain substances to water make boats float better?
Yes, if it makes the water denser, the boat will float easier. For example, it is easier to float in salty water.
What are the substances that float in water?
Substances that float in water typically have a lower density than water. Some examples include wood, oil, plastic, and cork. These substances are able to displace enough water to generate an upward buoyant force that keeps them afloat.

I suspect that "flow" is meant to also be "float", but even with that substitution, it just changes the question from nonsensical to counterfactual.Most things that float in water do not float in air.
What can float on water?

Would a human finger sink or float?
A human finger would generally float in water due to its density being lower than that of water. However, factors like oil or other substances on the finger could affect this.
Water vapor and clouds are?

Will alcohol sink or float?
Alcohol is less dense than water, so it will float on top of water. However, if the alcohol is mixed with other substances that increase its density, it may sink.
Does fire float on water?
Many combustible substances (substances that will burn) are lighter (less dense) than water and will float - paper, wood and gasoline are a few examples. When ignited (set on fire), these substances will continue to float, and so will the fire.
What substances float on oil?
All materials with a density greater than the density of this oil.
