Why do objects sink or float in H₂O? 

• Because their densities are higher or lower than compared to water

• Because their densities are using gravity to pull down

• Because their densities are heavier or lighter

• Because their mass and volumes are equal 

floating or sinking when compared to water.

• volume

• solution

• relative density

• mixture

The water is ______ dense than the boat

• more

• less

objects that are more dense than water will sink and objects that are less dense than water will float

• properties

• relative density

• physical state

What is the formula for density?

• density = mass x volume

• density = mass / volume

• density = mass + volume

• density = mass - volume
