The density of anything is the ratio of the weight (really the mass) to the volume that the material occupies. Water was involved in the original definition of units of mass and volume, so it has a rather special value of density. To a good approximation, the density of water is 1 gram per milliliter.
Perhaps you mean "specific gravity". That refers to an object's density, compared to the density of a reference subtance (usually water). For example, if iron has 8 times the density of water, then its specific gravity is said to be 8.
It's actually pretty easy. If the density of the substance is higher than the density of water, the object will sink. If the density of the substance is lower than the density of water, the object will float. Be aware though that various substances may have dissolved into the water, thus changing its density. For example, seawater has a different density than fresh water.
yes water can increase the density of water as wood has the power to absorb water and so the density of water is drastically increased
Pure water has a density of 1,000 kg/m3
Water has a greater density than ice.
The density of Saturn is less than the density of water, about 70% of water's density in fact.
I can only assume that you mean which has the grater desity water or boiling water. The colder the water the more density it will have.
means that plasticine has higher density.

I assume you mean "affect". Water density can be affected by impurities. Assuming the water is pure, it can be affected by temperature, pressure, and isotopic composition.
Specific gravity is defined as the density of a substance, compared to the density of water. This is roughly equivalent to the density, expressed in kilograms/liter.
I assume you mean 1.0 grams/milliliter. Pure water has a density of 1.0 g/ml.
An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water.

It means a density that is 0.907 times that of pure water.
This is the determination of the specific density (the ratio liquid density/water density).
Yes, Saturn's mean density is only 70% of that of water.
