Pumice is generally used in dentisty as an abrasive in tooth polishing to remove calculi and tartar from teeth. It's also used in podiatry as an abrasive to remove calluses.
Basically, it's a light weight and easy to find abrasive since it's made from volcanic rock.
pumice...i think
If you mean the only rock that floats, than it would be pumice, which is often used to remove hard skin.
The brand of hand soap called "Lava" is alleged to contain pumice. Lava soap really does have pumice in it.
Pumice is an igneous rock formed from volcanic lava that cools quickly and traps gas bubbles, resulting in a light, porous texture. Over a long period of time, pumice can undergo weathering and erosion, leading to the breakdown of its structure and the release of its minerals into the surrounding environment. Additionally, it may become buried and subject to pressure, potentially transforming into different types of rock through processes like lithification or metamorphism.
Pumice is a porous rock that can float on water. It's density is less tham 1g per cm.
A pumice rock is considered a rock because it is composed of multiple minerals, mainly feldspar and quartz. Minerals are the building blocks of rocks, so pumice is classified as a rock rather than a single mineral.

Pumice stone can be used for cleaning.
Pumice.
It is an igneous (volcanic rock).
no pumice rock does not turn into granite.
Pumice is a solid material; it is not melted although it used to be melted rock when it was originally formed by a volcano.
No, pumice is an extrusive rock ejected into the atmosphere by volcanic eruptions.
yes pumice is an igneous rock.
Pumice is a type of rock that is formed from volcanic foam. It is light in weight due to the presence of trapped air bubbles and is commonly used in horticulture and as a skin exfoliant.
