How is density used to determine if a material will float or sink in a liquid?
Density is used to determine if a material will float or sink in a liquid by comparing the density of the material to the density of the liquid. If the material has a greater density than the liquid, it will sink. If the material has a lower density than the liquid, it will float. Objects float when they displace an amount of liquid equal to their own weight.
Does a pen float?
Whether a pen floats or sinks in water depends on its material. A plastic pen will typically float, while a metal pen will likely sink. The density of the material determines whether an object will float or sink in water.
How do you think the amount of a material affects its tendency to sink or float?

If a matrial has a density of one will it float of sink in water?
If a material has a density of one, it will float in water. This is because the density of water is 1 g/cm³, so any material with a density equal to or less than that of water will float.
