What is the reason that a crushed tin ball of foil will sink and and flat piece of it floats?
A flat piece of tin foil may float on top of water due to surface tension. A crushed ball of foil does not have near the amount of surface area in contact with the surface of the water, so the surface tension is not sufficient to keep it suspended. Note that if you place a flat sheet of foil in the bottom of a container and pour water in on top of it however, it will not rise to the top to float; you have to place it on top carefully in order to get it to float.

How does a tin foil raft float?
A tin foil raft, which is just a flat piece of tin foil (which we know is really aluminum foil), floats by means of the surface tension of the water that supports it. We all know that aluminum is more dense than water. A block or other chunk of aluminum would sink in water. But because the aluminum foil is thin, its mass is "spread out" over a wide area, and this causes a broad interaction with the surface tension characteristic of water.
