if u made the piece ofmetal hollow it can float unless its density is larger than the water density
ANSWER:If you make it displace more water than what makes it sink, it will float, as in a ships hull. If you make pontoons out of it, it will float. If you make an enclosed shape that contains enough air, it will float.There should be less density in the item than the water.

Why does using powdered iron make a reaction go faster than using a single piece of iron?
It has a greater surface area than the single piece of iron
What would make a better reflector a piece of metal or a piece of wood?
A piece of metal would make a better reflector than a piece of wood because metal has higher reflectivity due to its smooth surface and lower absorption of light. Wood is more likely to absorb light rather than reflect it efficiently.
What metal is mixed with iron to make high alloy steels?
Chromium
What shiny mirror-like metal is mixed with iron to make stainless steel?
Chrome is used with iron to create stainless steel alloys.
How do you make temporary magnets?
You can create temporary magnets by using a material that can be easily magnetized, such as iron or steel, and exposing it to a strong magnetic field. Once the magnetic field is removed, the material will lose its magnetism. Heating the material above its Curie temperature can also demagnetize it, making it temporary.
How do you make metal float but not on water?
I can make a iron nail float. Simply melt some lead and the iron will float on top of the lead. Your question seems to be with regard to how do Boats float and the answer is Bouyancy. The Boat displaces a volume of water and if the weight of the displaced water is less than the weight of the boat, the boat will float.
Can you make metal float?
You can't make a bar of metal float on water, but boats with metal hulls float. Also, metal bars and other metal objects float on mercury.
How do you make an iron float?
the modern iron has a small "shell" to hold the water in it now if its empty and is in water it may float from the air inside the iron
Is there any fluid dense enough to float a piece of iron or is it possible to make water dense enough to float the iron by adding salt to it?
-- The density of iron near room temperature is around 7.9 gm/cc, whereas at the same temperature, mercury is liquid with a density around 13.5 gm/cc. A lump of iron will float nicely in a bowl of mercury at room temperature. -- Don't forget that aircraft carriers and battleships are also pieces of iron, and that they float nicely in water.
How did Elisha make an iron float in the Bible?
Elisha didn't make the iron float. God created it through a miracle. That would explain how there was iron during the bronze age, if God created it for a purpose.
What metal is used to make medicines?
There is iron.
What metal would you use to make iron sulphate?
Iron is needed to produce iron sulphate.
Why does using powdered iron make a reaction go faster than using a single piece of iron?
It has a greater surface area than the single piece of iron
What materials were used to make make the first television?
metal,iron and wood (mostly wood)
What metal is used with carbon to make steel?
Iron
What would make a better reflector a piece of metal or a piece of wood?
A piece of metal would make a better reflector than a piece of wood because metal has higher reflectivity due to its smooth surface and lower absorption of light. Wood is more likely to absorb light rather than reflect it efficiently.
Metal used along with carbon to make steel?
Iron
