Understanding Density: Sink or Float?

What determines if an object will sink or float in water?

• Its shape

• Its color

• Its temperature

• Its density compared to water

How do volume and mass relate to density?

• They are unrelated to density

• They are used to calculate density

• They determine the color of an object

• They affect the temperature of an object

What happens when liquids of different densities are combined?

• They evaporate

• They change color

• They form layers based on density

• They mix evenly

Which liquid has the highest density in the example given?

• Green liquid

• Yellow liquid

• Red liquid

• Blue liquid

Does changing the amount of material in an object affect its density?

• Yes, it always increases density

• Yes, it always decreases density

• Yes, but only if the material is metal

• No, it does not change density

Why does a ball of clay sink in water?

• It is the same density as water

• It is hollow

• It is more dense than water

• It is less dense than water

Why do popsicle sticks float in water?

• They are less dense than water

• They are made of metal

• They are more dense than water

• They are the same density as water

What would happen if Saturn were placed in a large enough pool of water?

• It would evaporate

• It would dissolve

• It would float

• It would sink

What is the main concept learned about relative density?

• It is unrelated to sinking or floating

• It compares an object's density to another substance

• It only applies to solids

• It is a chemical property

What is a fun fact about Saturn's density?

• It is more dense than water

• It is less dense than water

• It is denser than Earth

• It is the same density as water
