Does the type of liquid affect a marblhe4354e from sinking?

Yes, the type of liquid affects whether a marble will sink or float. Objects with a density greater than that of the liquid will sink, while objects with a lower density will float. For example, a marble made of glass (denser than water) will sink in water but float in a lighter liquid like oil.
