A hollow steel ball weighs 1 kilogram what must its volume be for it to float in water?

For an object to flat it must displace more water than it weighs. So a 1 kg hollow steel ball bust displace 1kg of water. 1 kg of water has a volume of 1 litre so the steel ball must have a volume greater than 1l. Note: 1lite = 1000cm^3
