Do things float in alcohol?
Yes. For every fluid, there are things that float in it ... they just have to be things that are less dense than the fluid. That's how stones float in mercury, logs float in water, and hot balloons float in air.
What factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?
An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.
The ability of an object to float on a fluid is influenced by?
The ability of an object to float on a fluid is influenced by its density compared to the density of the fluid. If the object's density is less than the fluid's density, it will float. Additionally, the shape and volume of the object can also affect its ability to float.
An objects density must be greater than what for the object to float?
An object's density must be less than the density of water,in order for the object to float.
What are the necessary conditions for the body to float in liquid?
For an object to float in a liquid, the buoyant force acting on the object must be equal to or greater than the weight of the object. This depends on the density of the object, the density of the liquid, and the volume of the object submerged in the liquid. The object will float if its density is less than the density of the liquid.
Why would an object float in water but sink in rubbing alcohol?
An object will float in water if its density is less than that of water. Rubbing alcohol has a lower density than water, so an object that sinks in rubbing alcohol likely has a higher density than the rubbing alcohol. This difference in density causes the object to sink in rubbing alcohol but float in water.
Do things float in alcohol?

When an object float what does the object have?
when a object float it has density

An object will float if?
density of the object < density of the fluid
The ability of an object to float on a fluid is influenced by?
The ability of an object to float on a fluid is influenced by its density compared to the density of the fluid. If the object's density is less than the fluid's density, it will float. Additionally, the shape and volume of the object can also affect its ability to float.
What causes something to sink or float?
What causes it to sink or float is the density. The density of water is 1.0. If the object's density is more 1.0 then it sinks, but if the object's density is less then 1.0 then the object will float.
Is it true that when the weight of an object is less than the density of water that object the object will float?
The weight does not determine if an object will float in water. If an object has a DENSITY that is more than the density of water then it will sink, if it's density is less than the density of water it will float.
An objects density must be greater than what for the object to float?
An object's density must be less than the density of water,in order for the object to float.
Will a density of 2.7 float?
Is this the density of a liquid or an object? If this is the density of a liquid and you want to make an object float, than the density of the object should be less than 2.7. If this is the density of an object you are trying to make float, than the density of the liquid should be greater than 2.7.
How can you use density to see if an object can float?
Usually, an object can float if it has a lower density than the liquid it is in.
What will the density of any object be if they want that object you to float?
An object will float in water if its density is lower than water which means that for an object to float, its density needs to be less than ~1 gram/centimeter^3,
