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.  

Why do ice cubes float in a  glass of water?

• the ice cubes are more dense than the water
• the water is more dense than the ice cubes
• the water is more dense than the glass
• the ice is more dense than the glass
