A soda pop can filled with diet soda has a mass of 373 g and a volume of 381 mL. A soda pop can filled with regular soda has a mass of 393 g and a volume of 381 mL. What will happen when the cans are put in a bucket filled with water? Recall that water has a density of 1.00 g/mL.

Answer:

the diet soda will float but the regular soda will sink

Step-by-step explanation:

water has a density of 1.00g/ml so for an object to sink the grams must have a greater ratio than 1:1 to milliliters. so the diet soda has 373g and 381ml, but 373<381 so it will float because it is less dense than water but the regular soda will sink because 393>381 so it is more dense than water
