Question

If an object has a density of 0.56 g/mL and you put it into water, will it sink or float?
Responses

Sink
Sink

Float

Answer 1

An object will float in water if its density is less than the density of water, which is approximately 1.0 g/mL. Since the object has a density of 0.56 g/mL, which is less than 1.0 g/mL, it will float in water.
