If a block of wood floats in water what does that mean about its density?
If a block of wood floats in water, it means that the density of the wood is less than the density of water. This is because objects with a lower density than water will float, while objects with a higher density will sink.
What floats and does not float?
A pencil floats, a human no float, a feather floats, paper floats, ice floats, keys do not float, rocks do not float, coins do not, flip flops float. Second answer: I think you meant to ask, 'What floats and then some time later starts to sink. If that is what you meant, the answer is: There are absorbent substances which float when dry, then after absorbing water while they are floating, they increase in density and then sink.
What happens to frozen water that is different from most frozen liquids?
Frozen water (ice) is less dense than liquid water, which is why it floats. When water freezes, its molecules form a crystalline structure that causes it to expand, unlike most liquids that contract when they freeze. This expansion is why ice floats on water.
Why does a bar of steel sink while a boat floats?
A bar of steel sinks in water because its density is higher than that of water, causing it to displace less water than its own weight. A boat floats because its shape and design displace enough water to create an upward force called buoyancy that is greater than its weight.
Is water denser than oil?
Yes, water is denser than oil. Water has a higher density because its molecules are tightly packed together, while oil molecules are more spread out and have lower density. This difference in density is why oil floats on top of water.
Does silk float or sink in water?
It floats, but after a while silk will sink.
When tea leaves unfold while steeping it is called what?

What are the Methods of Procedure for an egg floats in salt water?
One method of determining if an egg floats in salt water is by dissolving salt in a container of water until the egg floats. Another method involves gradually adding salt to a container of water while placing the egg in to see if it floats. Both methods rely on the principle that the density of the water increases as salt is added, causing the egg to float when the water becomes dense enough.
Does an egg sink or float when placed in water as a test to determine its freshness?
An egg that sinks in water is fresh, while an egg that floats is not fresh.
Why are ships are no sinking while they are in the sea?
if the water the object displaces wieghs more than the object it self then it floats
Why does a coin sink while a piece of styrofoam of a similar shape and size floats?
Because a coin is more dense than water, while styrofoam is not.
Why does a coin sink in water while a piece of Styrofoam of a similar size and shape floats?
Coins are denser than water. Styrofoam is less dense than water.
When gasoline and water are mixed together which one ends on top?
Gasoline has a density of around .71g/mL while water's density is 1g/mL so Gasoline floats on Water.
Why boiled rice sinks in water and dead body floats?
Rice is more dense than water , while the human body is very less dense than water
