How are mass and volume related to the sinking and floating of an object?

An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water.

When you compare the density of water or air with another object how can you tell which has the lower or higher density?

-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.


What liquid has a density less than water?

Volatile liquids such as alcohol and ethanol have less density than water. They also evaporate faster than water does.


Did the substances that floated have a density greater than or less than 1?

Assuming they are floating on water, the density of the substance would be LESS than 1.

Which planets in the solar system have an average density less than that of water?

It is said that if you could find an ocean on Earth large enough to accommodate it, Saturn would float. That is, Saturn's average density is less than the density of water. Turns out it's the only planet with an average density less than 1.000, that is, less than the density of water.
