Buoyancy is primarily caused by density differences. When an object is immersed in a fluid, the upward force it experiences, known as buoyant force, is a result of the density difference between the object and the fluid. Objects with a lower density than the surrounding fluid will float, while those with a higher density will sink.
Convection currents are caused by temperature and density differences. As a fluid is heated, it becomes less dense and rises, creating a flow that transfers heat. Conversely, as a fluid cools, it becomes denser and sinks, completing the convection cycle.
This is known as convection. Convection is the transfer of heat through a fluid (liquid or gas) caused by density differences resulting from temperature variances. Warmer, less dense fluid rises while cooler, denser fluid sinks, creating a circular motion that facilitates heat transfer.
The movement of material due to differences in density caused by differences in temperature is called convection.
Buoyancy is proportional to fluid density but the question seems to imply density increasing with depth. Gases such as the atmosphere behave in that way. Liquids do not because they are to all intents and purposes incompressible. A cubic metre of water in Lake Baikal would still have a mass of 1Tonne whether at the surface or down at the bottom.
A can of normal coke weighs around 395g and a can of diet coke weighs about 355g. The difference is due to a difference in the density of the two caused by different sugar contents.

To calculate the water difference when the density changes, you would need to account for the change in volume due to the density change. Use the formula: Difference in water volume = Original water volume / Original water density - Original water volume / New water density. Multiply this difference in volume by the new water density to obtain the actual water difference.

Liquids can be separated by the density difference by centrifugation.
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
water density
If there are more molecules in a given volume of air, the density is greater. If there are fewer molecule, the density decreases. Density=Mass/Volume
The difference in composition is what caused the Earth to develop layers as it cooled.!Differences in density caused earth to develop layers as it cooled.The earth has different layers because as it formed, the lighter parts (like continental crust) floated to the surface, and the really heavy parts (like iron and nickel in the core) sank to the middle.
