That object will float, because the density of water is always around 1.0 .
a 5 gram object that is 5 cm3
--Objects sink in water if they have a higher density than water and float if they have a lower density than water. Density is mass per volume of an object (usually measured in grams per milliliters, or g/mL)-- a denser object, such as a brick, will have a higher mass per volume than a less dense object, such as a sponge. The density of water is 1 g/mL, so anything with a density greater than 1 g/mL will sink, and anything with a density lower than 1 g/mL will float.
Density is calculated as Mass / Volume. Therefore for an object that has a mass of 350 grams and a volume of 95 cm^3, the density would be 3.684 g/cm^3. Water has an estimated 1g/cm^3 density, therefore the density of this object is greater than that of water and would sink.
Knowing only its mass, you can't tell.If every object with LESS than 25 grams of mass sank, then leaves couldn't float.If every object with MORE than 25 grams of mass sank, then ships, ducks, and icebergs couldn't float.You also have to know the object's volume:If this object's volume is more than 25 cc, then its density is less than 1, and it will float.If this object's volume is less than 25 cc, then its density is more than 1, and it will sink.
The Density of the object as long as its .99 grams then it will float because the object has to have less density than water in order to rise above the water.

its 2.3g/ML

a 5 gram object that is 5 cm³ :)
In order for an object to float on water, its overall density must be less than 1 g/cc.That goes for a shirt-button, a super-tanker, or an iceberg the size of Texas. The object's massmakes no difference.
The mass of an object (or its weight) has nothing to do with its ability to float ...consider feathers, rocks, people, and battleships.The determining quantity is the object's density, which is the ratio of its massto its volume.
It will float.

if its in water and it has less grams per cm cubed than the water does then it will float and vicevesa
Any object which, if submerged, would displace 2 times its own volume. The density of the object could be well above 2 gms/cm^3. If that were not the case, then ships made of metal would never float in water. which has a much lower density.
What would be the density of an object that has a volume of 25 cm3 and 5 grams?
