Some objects are more dense than others due either to the mass of the particles in the material, the atomic number or how closely the particles are packed together.

For example, lead, has a high density because its particles have a very high mass.

But a material like polystyrene, doesn't have a high density as the particles are spaced far apart and they have a low mass value.

Some objects are more dense than the other because they have different/greater masses in the volume due to a higher or lower atomic number.

Why do some objects float when placed in a container filled with a liquid while other sink?

It all depends on the density of the object. If an object was less dense than water, then it will float. If an object is more dense than water, then it will sink.

If you have two equally sized objects how could you tell which one is more dense?

Compare their weights on scale's have to select scales depending on the size of the objects to find a objects density divide the objects mass by its volume.

What characteristic of water allows it to support the weight of objects more dense than water?

Surface Tension-Surface tension is a property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force. It is revealed, for example, in floating of some objects on the surface of water, even though they are denser than water, and in the ability of some insects (e.g.Water striders) and even reptiles (basilisk) to run on the water surface. This property is caused by cohesion of like molecules, and is responsible for many of the behaviors of liquids.
