Squeeze it.
no; they have the same volume but their mass is quite different; density is mass/volume and the sponge has much lower density
Objects float or sink because of their density. An example of an object with low density is a sponge, as it has loads of air bubbles in it, and will float. An example of an object with high density is a brick. This is because the brick doesn't have any air trapped in it, it is "packed in", and is more dense than water, therefore it will sink.
The sea sponge was my oceans project topic. The sponge was so absorbent!
Sponge and cotton are absorbent.
New technology and studies led them to reclassifying the sponge.
calculate density of sponge ?
If the object's original density is less than water (sponge, for example) - the density will increase. If the object's original density is greater than that of water (though I cannot think of anything that fits that category that is porous enough to absorb water), the density will decrease.
To answer this we need also the density of the sponge material.

The density of the polymer will be very close to, usually a little under, 1, the density of the sponge will depend entirely upon how much polymer and how much space (air/bubbles) there is in it.
The density of zirconium (pure metal) is 6.511 g/cm3. The apparent density of zirconium sponge or powder is of course lower.
You can only compress it to its existing volume (which you can't change without changing the density). The key is that a sponge isn't completely solid, it has pockets of air throughout it. Thus, you can compress those pockets of air and never change the volume of the actual solid.
depends on the density of the liquid
Spicules, like our skeleton, give the sponge structure. Without spicules, Sponge Bob would be Sponge Blob.
A sponge is an organism that has specific characteristics. It is a group of invertebrates which are organisms without "backbones" or endoskeletons.
If an object is less dense than the substance it is placed in, it will float. For example, a sponge is less dense than water, so will float. However, if you squeeze the sponge underwater so that it has no air left in it, it will sink, as it will be the same density as the water.
