I think no but I think Saturn have less density than water and it can float on water.
------------------------------------------
Venus has a density of 5.24, where water has a density of 1.0. All the "terrestrial" planets are typically as dense as rocks; that's why they are sometimes called "rocky" planets.
The gas giant planets have much lower densities; 1.33 for Jupiter, 1.32 for Neptune, and 0.69 for Saturn. So yes, if Saturn were a uniform solid of that density, it would "float". However, the comparison is silly, because Saturn is mostly gas; hydrogen and helium. You have to compress these a WHOLE LOT to get densities as high as they are!
What else can I help you with?
When you compare the density of water or air with another object how can you tell which has the lower or higher density?
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
The density of ice is?
less than that of water
Why density of wax is less than water?
The density of wax is less than water because wax is less dense than water. In other words, the mass of wax for a given volume is less than the mass of water for the same volume. This is why wax tends to float on water.
How does the density of ice compare to the density of water?
Ice is less dense than liquid water.
Do ice and water have the same density?
no. Density of ice is more than of water...we can understand from ice sinking in water drinks... Edited by Dr.J. : How is it possible for the density of ice to be more (greater) than that of liquid water if ice FLOATS on lakes and rivers? Clearly, the density of ice is LESS than that of liquid water.
Which has less density a cork or water?
A cork is less denser than water because cork is floating on water so it will have less density than water
How are mass and volume related to the sinking and floating of an object?
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. Density = mass / volume.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. Density = mass / volume.

What can you infer about the density if a block of the substance floats in water?
If a block of the substance floats in water, it means that the density of the substance is less than the density of water. Since objects with lower density than water float in water, we can infer that the substance is less dense than water.
How do you know if a compound has a density less than 1 gmL?
If it floats in water, it has a density less than water. Density of water is 1.0 g/mL
What liquid has a density less than water?
Volatile liquids such as alcohol and ethanol have less density than water. They also evaporate faster than water does.
Is the density of mars similar to other terrestrial planets?
No, the density of Mars is less than that of Earth and Venus, making it less dense than other terrestrial planets. This lower density is due to Mars having a smaller iron core and less overall mass compared to Earth and Venus.
Why is density needed to know whether a substance will float or sink in water?
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.
What is the comparison of density to density of an equal volume of water?
If the density of a substance is greater than the density of water, it will sink in water. If the density of a substance is less than the density of water, it will float on water.
Is it true that when the weight of an object is less than the density of water that object the object will float?
The weight does not determine if an object will float in water. If an object has a DENSITY that is more than the density of water then it will sink, if it's density is less than the density of water it will float.
What would happen if you tried to find the density of an object with a density less than water?
If you try to find the density of an object with a density less than water, the object will float in water. This indicates that the object is less dense than water. To find the density of such an object, you would divide the mass of the object by its volume.
What is floats in water What density?
An object will float in water if it has LESS density than the water.
