Question

The density of pure water is 1 kg/L. After you calculated the density of material, how would you know if the object would sink or float without placing it in water?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

After calculating the density of the material we can tell if the object will sink or float without placing it in water by comparing their density.

• The density of water is given as 1kg/L
• If the density of the material is greater than the density of water, the material will sink.
• If the density of the material is less than the density of the water, it will float.

This way, comparing the density values of both substances can tell us whether they will float or sink.
