If the density of a solid substance is more than that of a liquid, the solid substance will sink in the liquid. This is because objects with higher density will displace a volume of liquid that has a lower density, causing the solid to sink to the bottom.
If the density of a solid substance is greater than that of the liquid it is placed in, the solid substance will sink to the bottom of the liquid. This occurs because objects with higher density will displace an equal volume of the lower density liquid, causing the solid to sink.
You can determine if a solid object is more or less dense than water by comparing their densities. If the density of the object is greater than the density of water (1 g/cm^3), then the object will sink in water. If the density of the object is less than the density of water, then it will float.
Comets are largely made of ice and the ice and rocky materials they are made of are more loosely packed than an asteroid which is typically more solid chunks of rock and metal.
More dense objects settle faster than less dense objects. This is because denser objects have more mass and therefore experience a greater force of gravity pulling them downward, causing them to settle more quickly than less dense objects.

Gauge its buoyancy. Put it in the water. objects that are less dense will float while objects that are more dense sink.
The answer depends on the shape of the object. Ships, made from steel, which is denser than water, do float!

the buoyant force of the liquid on the solid is more than the buoyant force of the air on the solid.
Objects are more buoyant in water than in air.
Objects sink when the density of the object is more than that of the water.

The answer to your question is in the question. Gold leaf is a very thin sheet of gold that is used to rub gold on a object. Solid gold is one piece of gold that is solid all the way through and can be made into gold objects. There is very little gold in gold leaf, but solid gold is all gold making it worth a great deal more since gold is sold by the ounce.
