It is not just the weight matter in floatation or sinking.The shape,surface area or the base liquid that matters.For eg. a very flat sheat of iron weighing 85gm will float in water but a bead(ball )of iron weighing 85gm will sink.On the other hand an iron bead of 85gm will float in Mercury.
What else can I help you with?
Will an object with a density of 0.97 grams millimeters float or sink in water?
The object will sink in water, as the density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter. Since the object's density is less than that of water, it will not displace enough water to float.
Does volume alone determine if a object can float or sink?
No, volume alone does not determine if an object can float or sink. It depends on the density of the object compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it is denser, it will sink.
The tendency for an object to sink or float has to do with the object's density true or false?
True. An object will float if it is less dense than the fluid it is placed in, and sink if it is more dense. Density is a key factor in determining whether an object will sink or float.
Will an object that has a mass of 3.68 grams per cubic centimeter float on water?
No, an object that has a mass of 3.68 grams per cubic centimeter will not float on water. This density is greater than that of water, which has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, so the object will sink in water.
Would the float or sink?
An object will float if it is less dense than the fluid it is sitting in. If the object is denser than the fluid, it will sink.
Can an object with the volume of 77 grams and a mass of 65 grams float or sink?
It will float.
What determines an object will sink or float?
The Density of the object as long as its .99 grams then it will float because the object has to have less density than water in order to rise above the water.
Will an object with a density of 0.97 grams millimeters float or sink in water?
The object will sink in water, as the density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter. Since the object's density is less than that of water, it will not displace enough water to float.

The tendency for an object to sink or float has to do with the object's density true or false?
True. An object will float if it is less dense than the fluid it is placed in, and sink if it is more dense. Density is a key factor in determining whether an object will sink or float.
What two things help in determining if an object will float of sink?
You can tell if objects will float or sink byHow buoyant the object isHow dense the object is
Would the float or sink?
An object will float if it is less dense than the fluid it is sitting in. If the object is denser than the fluid, it will sink.
Can you use volume alone predict whether an object will sink or float?
No, because you can predict if an object will sink or float mostly on density.
Will an object that has a mass of 3.68 grams per cubic centimeter float on water?
No, an object that has a mass of 3.68 grams per cubic centimeter will not float on water. This density is greater than that of water, which has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, so the object will sink in water.
Will an object wit a volume of 77 grams per cubic centimeter and mass of 65 grams float or sink in the water?
The object will sink in water because its density (77 g/cm³) is greater than the density of water (1 g/cm³). Objects with a density greater than that of water will sink, while objects with a density less than water will float.
What determines whether an object will sink or float in a fuild?
The object's density relative to the fluid. If the object is denser than the fluid it will float; if it is less dense it will sink.
Do ceramic float or sink?
a solid ceramic object would sink. however, if the object is displacing enough water proportional to it's weight, then it will float. If you put an empty glass bowl in the water, it will float; but if you allow water in, it will sink. This applies to ceramics.
