Objects that are less dense than water will float on fresh water. Common examples include wood, certain plastics, and some fruits like apples.

What is abstract in pepper and soap trick?
The "pepper and soap" trick demonstrates the concept of surface tension in liquids. When pepper is sprinkled on the surface of water, it floats due to the water's surface tension. Adding soap disrupts this tension, causing the water molecules to move apart and the pepper to quickly disperse away from the soap, illustrating how surfactants can alter surface tension and affect the behavior of liquids.
