more dense substances sink, less dense substances float. oil will not sink in water, it will float, it is less dense.
Trick question,it will dissolve
This depends what you put it in. If you put platinum in water it will sink. Water has a density of 1 g/mLwhereas platinum has a density of about 21 g/mL. Substances that are more dense than the liquid it is submerged in will sink.
does Arsenic float or sink
It will float and sink but eventually the shell will dissolve and it will feel like a gelatin substance

Substances with a density (mass per unit volume) greaterthan a liquid will sink in the liquid; if the object has a lower density it will float.
Objects with higher densities than water will sink in water. What they do in other substances depends on the densities of those substances.

If you think about it, you can figure it out. Does one of the substances float in water and the other one sink?
The fats (i.e. cream) from the milk will dissolve in the gasoline and the the resulting gasoline/cream solution will float on the water from the milk.
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
Yes, because the density of nylon which is 1.14, is denser than water, which is 1. Since substances that are denser than water, tend to sink, while substances that are less dense tend to float.

I have a marker which float in water.
Some of the ash will, but there will be bone fragments that will sink to the bottom of the water. You can purchase water soluble urns that can be placed in the water. They float for a few minutes and then sink.
