Will it float in water? Determine if the following shapes will float in water by calculating the density for each item. D = M / V
Mass: 15 gVolume: 20 mL
Mass: 1000 gVolume: 50 mL
Mass: 225 gVolume: 100 mL
Mass: 10 gVolume: 200 mL

Will it float in water? Determine if the following shapes will float in water by calculating the density for each item. D = M / V
Mass: 15 gVolume: 20 mLDensity:
0.75 g/mL
Mass: 1000 gVolume: 50 mLDensity:
20.0 g/mL
Mass: 225 gVolume: 100 mLDensity:
2.25 g/mL
Mass: 10 gVolume: 200 mLDensity:
0.05 g/mL

If the density is less than 1.0 g/cm3 then it will float. 1 g/mL = 1 g/cm3
