The density of water is specified as 1 gram per cubic centimeter. Any object having a density less than 1 gm/cc3 will float on water.

Compare the thing's density with the density of water. If the thing's density is less than the density of water it will float, if greater than water it will not.

What makes objects more or less buoyant than other objects?

Their mass (and the density of the fluid they're floating in).


How does density affect the floating and sinking of objects?

An object will float if it has less density than the fluid in which it is placed; if the object has more density, it will sink.


What causes sinking?

Density. Objects that are more dense than other less dense objects will sink below them. This is how floating works, as well.


What are floating objects?

How do you find density of object that floats?

Well you Find the density by doing Mass/Volume. If The objects density is less than 1 it will float


Why is a objects density expressed a relationship between two units?

It is not two units are not the same as 1 density the objects density only counts on how much the mass of the object is then you will find out the density (units are counted in the density)
