It depends upon its shape. A solid brick of lead will sink. A lead weight pressed into the shape of a bowl will float, because it displaces more water, and is therefore buoyant enough to float.
No, lead is a dense material and will sink in water. The density of lead is greater than the density of water, so it will not float.
Lead will sink in liquid mercury because lead is denser than mercury. Mercury is a heavy liquid metal, so most metals will sink when placed in it.
Lead would float in mercury, as it is slightly less dense. (11.3 g/cc for lead, 13.5 g/cc for mercury)
Lead weight sinks in water since its density is greater than that of water.
Lead and marbles sink in water because their density is greater than that of water. Objects with a higher density than water will sink, while objects with a lower density will float. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, which states that an object will float if it displaces an amount of water equal to its own weight.
maybe the density of the objects
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.
If it is heaver than water (or what ever liquid you put it in) it will sink. Lead will sink. A cork will float.
No, lead is a dense material and will sink in water. The density of lead is greater than the density of water, so it will not float.
No.Lead has a very high density and will not float in alcohol
Lead will sink in liquid mercury because lead is denser than mercury. Mercury is a heavy liquid metal, so most metals will sink when placed in it.
Lead would float in mercury, as it is slightly less dense. (11.3 g/cc for lead, 13.5 g/cc for mercury)
Lead weight sinks in water since its density is greater than that of water.
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
How can you make a chocolate float or sink
what make stuff sink or and float
Lead and marbles sink in water because their density is greater than that of water. Objects with a higher density than water will sink, while objects with a lower density will float. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, which states that an object will float if it displaces an amount of water equal to its own weight.
