Floating Objects Worksheet

The document discusses factors that determine whether objects will float or sink in water such as density. Things float in water if they are less dense than water. Density refers to how closely packed particles are in a substance. The document asks the reader to order objects by density and identify which will float in water, noting that adding salt can make an egg sink by increasing the density of the water. It concludes by stating people float in the Dead Sea due to its high salt content and density.
