How many paper clips make a pound?
Depends on the size of the paper clip. Paper clips come in a range of sizes. Agreed. Also: The weight of one standard paper clip = 0.00043kg x 9.8m/s2 = 0.004214 N, or 0.000947345 lbf. So if you divide 1 lbf by the weight of a standard paper clip given then with that size of paper clip it would take about 1,056 to make a pound.

Does a paper clip sink or float?
It depends on the material with which the clip is made. If is made up of plastic it would float and if it is made up of metal then it would sink. Also the way in which we place the clip would decide whether it would float or sink. If we place even a metallic clip on the surface of water without disturbing the surface then it would float. It is due to the surface tension property of the liquid.
