hydrogen floats at room temperature because it has a density less than 1.
Chlorine is a gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, so it cannot sink or float. It is typically stored and transported in tanks as a compressed gas.
Arsenic is denser than water, so it will sink in pure water.
Plutonium is a dense metal and will sink in water due to its high density.
Yes and no. Rubber bands can float and sink in water. They will float on the water for awhile and then will sink. But not all the time the rubber bands will float on the water for awhile. Sometimes it will immediately sink.
A short piece may be supported by the surface tension of water, but a coil of copper wire would sink.
Helium is lighter than air. So it will float in air.
Chlorine is a gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, so it cannot sink or float. It is typically stored and transported in tanks as a compressed gas.
Sodium shouldn't sink in water at room temperature, because the density of sodium is less than the density of water. The density of sodium at room temperature is 0.968 g/cm3, whereas the density of water at room temperature is 0.998g/cm3. So technically, sodium should float in water, not sink.
The the object you speak of is in water at approximately room temperature, then anything with a density above about 1 will sink; anything below 1 will float and anything at very close will be suspended in the water. So, to answer your question, high density equals sinking.
No, rocks are denser than mercury, so they would sink in mercury. Mercury is a very dense liquid at room temperature, so objects that are less dense than mercury will float on it.
For something to be able to float on water, it requires a density lower than water. Water at room temperature has a density of 1 kg / L or 1000 g / dm3Atomic number 43 is the element Technetium. At room temperature Tc has a density of 11 g / dm3.So yes, it will float on water.
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
H2S higher density than air.So it sinks in air.
