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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
It will 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.

You can tell if objects will float or sink byHow buoyant the object isHow dense the object is
No, because you can predict if an object will sink or float mostly on density.
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.
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.
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.
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.
What causes it to sink or float is the density. The density of water is 1.0. If the object's density is more 1.0 then it sinks, but if the object's density is less then 1.0 then the object will float.
