Density Floating Activity

This document describes a density floating activity where students measure the mass and volume of objects to calculate their density and determine if they float or sink in water. Students observe that objects with lower densities float while objects with higher densities sink. The document asks students to identify which object from the table would float in gasoline based on gasoline's density of 0.737g/mL.
