How can you use the density of an object to predict whether it will sink or float?
First, what will the object be floating on? The principal to your question is: for an object to float, its density must be equal to or less than the density of the liquid on which it is to float. A brick will float on top of mercury, because mercury is more dense than the brick. A cork will float on water because the cork is less dense than water. The same works for gases. An aluminum baking pan will float on the invisible gas sulfurhexaflouride because SF6 gas is more dense than the baking pan.
Will a marker float or sink in water?
I have a marker which float in water.
Does an egg float in salted water?
Yes it does float in salt water.
What are the results of can water float on water?
The results of can water float on water is that the water builds a ocean.
What vegetables float in water?
All vegetables float in water
Does gas float on water and why?
Oil and gas are less dense than water therefore will separate and float.
Why does oil and gas float on water?
Oil and gas are less dense than water therefore will separate and float.
Does water float on gas?
Yes, gasoline floats on top of water. Here's a school website with a simple explanationand diagrams about why it does float on water: http://water.me.vccs.edu/courses/ENV110/lesson20_2b.htm
Does gas fuel float in water?
no because is air not liquid
How do you know whether something will float or sink?
It depends on the density of the solid, liquid, or gas. If the density is lower than water it will float. (Water's density is about 1). Also, if the volume of the solid, liquid, or gas is bigger than the mass then it will also float. It will sink if the solid, liquid, or gas's density is higher than water's density. :)
Does fluorine float on water?
It is a gas at room temperature, so imagine this answer
Which gas giant could float on water?
Saturn, because it has a lower density than water.
Is an object buoyant in water?
Yes. Because its able to float in gas and liquid.
Which planet is less dense and can float?
Saturn is a gas planet, and if it were possible to place it in water it would float. Not sure if the rings would float, but, the planet itself would.
If gasoline is poured into liquid water will in float or sink?
Gasoline will float because it has a lighter density than water. Water has a density of 1.0 g/cm3 and gas has a density of about 0.7 g/cm3
Why do some turds float and some turds float?
It is the amount of gas in your turd. Gas is lighter and therefore a turd with more gas will float.
Why a rotten egg will float in a fresh water?
During decomposition an egg gives off gas which collects within the shell. Eventually this collection of gas gives the egg enough bouancy to float.
