What are you putting it in? In a liquid with a high enough specific gravity it certainly will float. A small flake of it will float on water as well, supported by the surface tension of the water.

Does tar float or sink?

It will float for a while than slowly sink because its density as a cube is Heavier than water (by the way waters density is 0.9-1.0 g and Tar is 1.02 g). I hereby conclude with all reasons that tar ( in a shape of a cube) will float then sink


A cube measuring 2cm on each side weights 5g will it sink or float?

Calculate its volume. Divide mass by volume to get its density. Compare that to the density of water - assuming you want to figure out whether it will float or sink in water.

Will a tennis ball float or sink?

A tennis ball will float in water because it is less dense than water. The air inside the ball helps to keep it buoyant on the surface of the water.
