Does steel pin float on saline water?
yes, it does
When would the density of an object float in liquid water?
The density is not directly relevant. Otherwise, ship made of steel would not float on water.
Why can big heavy steel ships float on water?
a big heavy steel ship floats on water because the volume is mostly air. trust me its true.
Can you tell why large log of wood floats on water but steel needle sinks?
Actually, the steel needle can float on water as well, so long as the surface tension is not broken. Answering the question, the buoyancy (ratio of density to that of displaced water) causes the log to float.
Which property of water allows things to float?
There is NO property of water that allows things to float. Floating in not a property of a substance. It is the difference in density of two objects that allows one to be buoyant when surrounded by the other. This a balloon can float on air, A steel ship can float on water and oil can float on water.
Why would a solid steel marble sink and a steel bowl float in a bathtub of water?
it is hollow so it will float
Could steel float on water?

Will a fork float?
A fork can float if it is made of the right material. A fork that is made from stainless steel will not float in water, but a fork made of plastic will.
Can you float a block of steel in water?
Not as long as it's still in the shape of a block. But if you re-shape it into the shape of a cup ... whether round or rectangular ... it will float, because it displaces much more water than a block does. If your cup-shape is done artistically and with care, people may call it what it looks like ... a little "boat" or "ship". Those objects are usually made out of re-shaped blocks of steel.
Does hot water need salt to make something float?
It would depend on the item of course... it would take an awful lot of salt to make a bar of steel float. Likewise, a sealed empty bottle might float on either cold or hot water. However, water will expand when heated, thus reducing the density of the water. Salt will increase the density of the water. It is possible to find some items that would float in cold water, but not in boiling water without compensating with something like salt.
