Water has a greater density than aluminum. The density of water is approximately 1 gram per cubic centimeter, while the density of aluminum is about 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter.

Why Does an aluminum can float on water but an aluminum pole does not?

Because the overall density of a can is less than the density of water, a solid aluminium pole has a density greater than water


If a 5.0cm3 sample of aluminum has a mass of 13.5grams will float in water?

No, since it's denser than water. Density is defined as mass per unit volume, in this case, 13.5 dividied by 5 .. which is greater than 1, the density of water. If the quotient was less than 1 (or density less than one gram per cubic centimeter), it would float in water.


Will aluminum pellets float in water?

Not if the pellets are solid. Aluminum will sink in water because its density (2.7g per cc) is greater than water (1.0g per cc).


A 5.0-cm to the power of 3 sample of aluminum has a mass of 13.5g will it float in water?

If you calculate the density, you'll find that it's greater than 1, therefore it will not float on water. Or you could save yourself some time and ask when the last time you saw metal float was.


Will a block of alumimum sink or float?

A block of aluminum will sink in water due to its density being greater than that of water.


Will an aluminum ball with a density of 2.70 gml sink or float in a beaker of water?

Aluminum will sink in water because its density (2.7g per cc) is greater than water (1.0g per cc). A solid object would only float if it displaces more mass than it weighs (i.e., its density is less than water).


Can aluminium float in water?

A solid bar of aluminum would not float, since its density (almost 3 grams per cc) is greater than that of water (1 gram per cubic centimeter). For an object to float in water, its density would have to be less than 1.0.


Which has greater density ice or water how can you say that?

Water has a greater density than ice.


Which has greater density 3kg of aluminum or 0.2 kg of aluminum?

The density of steel is greater than that of aluminium, A centimetre cube of each, if placed on a weighing balance would show that the steel has greater density because its side of the balance arm would sink.


Does freshwater or saltwater have a greater density?

Salt water has a greater density.


Aluminum sphere float in water?

If it was solid, no it would not float in water since it would displace less water than its weight. In other words, the density of aluminium is higher than the density of water, and denser objects will sink. If it were a hollow sphere and displaced more weight in water than its own weight, it could float - but that would not be by virtue of the density of aluminum, it would be because it was hollow.


How do you know an object has a density greater than water?

If an object placed in water sinks - then it has a density greater than water.
