Look at this image.  Which object has the LOWEST density in water? How? 

• The Ping Pong Ball because it floats to the top 
• The bolt because it has sunk to the bottom
• The soda cap because it is not just full of air like the Ping Pong ball

Why do the liquids form different layers?

• They have different densities.  
• They have different masses.  
• They have different volumes.  
• They are different temperatures.  

Which liquid has the highest density? 

• corn syrup
• lamp oil
• rubbing alcohol
• honey

Put the liquids in order from most dense to least dense?

• 4, 3, 2, 1
• 1, 2, 3, 4
• 3, 4, 2, 1, 
• 4, 3, 1, 2
