Yes, bones are more dense than water, so they will sink rather than float.
No, bone would sink in water because its density is greater than that of water. Bone is made up of minerals like calcium and phosphorus, which make it denser and heavier than water.
Yes, water can float on water. This is because of surface tension, which allows objects with a lower density than water to float on its surface. Items like boats or water bugs can float because of this phenomenon.
A styrofoam cup will float in water because styrofoam is less dense than water, causing it to displace water and float.
This depends on the density: if the density is greater than 1 g/cm3 (density of water) an object sink; if the density is lower the object float.I tested just now four tooth brushes: three sink, one float !
A balloon filled with air will float on water because it is less dense than water. The buoyant force acting on the balloon allows it to float.
Whale bones sink in water because of the lack of blubber that makes the whale float.
No, bone would sink in water because its density is greater than that of water. Bone is made up of minerals like calcium and phosphorus, which make it denser and heavier than water.

A dense heavy bone would not float and a skull without any internal contents through decomposition or insect infestation would not hold water or a probable air pocket and so would sink, light porous bone might float especially in sea water. If a skull had previously been buried and there had been a gradual filling of the cranial cavity with soil so that an air pocket was formed within the area above the ear holes and nasal hole, a skull might float, at least until the soil dissolved.
Both.Some fish have an air bladder. Some don't.It's also called a swim bladder or gas bladder. It makes it easy for fish to control their buoyancy, and stay at the level they want without a lot of extra swimming.
Some of the ash will, but there will be bone fragments that will sink to the bottom of the water. You can purchase water soluble urns that can be placed in the water. They float for a few minutes and then sink.
Yes, arrowheads made from materials like obsidian, chert, or flint are denser than water and will sink. Arrowheads made from lighter materials like bone or antler may float on water depending on their size and shape.
Jeremejevite does not float on water.
Yes, water can float on water. This is because of surface tension, which allows objects with a lower density than water to float on its surface. Items like boats or water bugs can float because of this phenomenon.
fish does float on water!
There are tents designed to Float in water. But not all tents designed to float.
Soil floats on water!
