Why some things float but others sink?
Maybe because they build it to not sink and some things sink because it is how it's made
Why do some things flaot while others sink?
things that are more dense sink while things that are less dense float
Why do some things float and som things sinks?
Because of density difference. High density causes the body to sink and low density makes the things to float on the surface.
Which scientist discovered why things sink or float?
Archimedes
Is mass what makes things float or sink in water?

What are some things that can float and sink?
ice

Does sulfur sink or float?
Sulphur will float on water.
Which will float on water a 1-kg block of wood or a 1-kg block of aluminum?
Wood will. A solid block of aluminum will sink. Things float when their density is less than water. There are some woods that sink.
