water has less density than lead. Mass depends on its volume
One litre of feathers would have far less mass than one litre of lead.
If inserted into the water as a solid "blob" then it will sink - unless it dissolves first. But, if because of the shape, the mass of water displaced by whole object is greater than the mass of the object, it will float - just as ships made of metal do.
The density of an object is its mass divided by its volume. If that is less than the density of water, it will float; if greater it will sink
If an object placed in water sinks - then it has a density greater than water.
A density greater than that of water (which varies with temperature).
The mass of feathers is far greater than the lead. amount = mass So you will have a huge pile of feathers compared to a small chunk of lead to equal a pound
The volume of lead will be greater than one gram of water. The density?æof lead is about 11 times more than that of water.?æ

Lead (11,34 g.cm^-3) has a greater density than water (1 g.cm^-3) so for the same volume of water and lead, lead will be heavier. The "-3" should be written as an exponent but it won't allow me
Not sure that either water or gasoline have litters, but 1.00 litres of water does have greater mass than 1.00 litres of gasoline.
10 kg is greater than 6 kg. kg is the unit of mass. Hence feather has more mass than lead in this case.
The molecules of lead are more massive and are more densely packed together than those of wood.
Because the mass of the volume of water they displace is greater than their mass, making their effective density less than that of water.
One litre of feathers would have far less mass than one litre of lead.
Water has a mass of 1000 kg per cubic metre. Lead has a mass of 11340 kg per cubic metre. So lead is heavier than water.
That depends on the amounts, of course - what exactly you are comparing. The buoyant force depends on the volume. For a certain volume of lead, there will be the same buoyant force as for the same volume of iron. On the other hand, since lead has a greater density, the buoyant force on a certain amount of MASS of lead will be less, compared to iron, since the same mass of lead will use up less volume.
The molecular maass of sulfuric acid (98,08) is greater than the molecular mass of water (18).
