The density of a paper clip is: 7.8 g/cm3. Thanks for asking! Have a great Thanksgiving Holiday! I can't wait for Christmas!
Paper clips have a density greater than the density of water.
Paper clips have a density greater than the density of water.
Well...1 gram. Or, if you are talking about density, than the density of a paper clip is 8.03 g/cm3.
No, a paper clip will not float in mineral oil because mineral oil has a higher density than a paper clip. The paper clip will sink in mineral oil.
Yes, a paper clip is more dense than water. The density of water is 1 g/cm³, while the density of a paper clip is higher than 1 g/cm³. This means that a paper clip would sink in water due to its higher density.
6.35 g/mL
8.03 g/cm3 (i think)
Yes, a paper clip will likely float on alcohol because alcohol has a density lower than that of water, making it less dense and able to support the weight of the paper clip.
This would be the same as finding the volume of a paper clip, See the related question below.

The hypothesis could be: If the paper clip is placed in a container of water and a material with a lower density than water is introduced, then the paper clip will float on the surface of the water due to the buoyant force acting on it.
The property of water that allows a paper clip to float is surface tension. Surface tension is the cohesive force of water molecules at the surface, which creates a kind of "skin" on the surface that can support the paper clip. Additionally, the density of the paper clip is lower than the water, allowing it to float.
