What liquids float on water?
Lighter liquids (like water or vegetable oil) are less dense than heavier liquids (like honey or corn syrup) so they float on top of the heavier liquids. The same amount of two different liquids you used in the container will have different densities because they have different masses.
Does mirror float in water?
The surface tension between the water and the flat mirror makes the water level higher than the mirror. Though the density of the mirror is larger than that of the water, the mirror does not sink.

How do you know if something will float?
Key Concepts
- The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance.
- An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in.
- An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
Does a higher density float or sink?
Density is a measure of how heavy something is compared to its size. If an object is more dense than water it will sink when placed in water, and if it is less dense than water it will float.
What household items float?
Objects like apples, wood, and sponges are less dense than water. They will float. Many hollow things like empty bottles, balls, and balloons will also float. That’s because air is less dense than water.
Why do lighter objects float in water?
Objects with tightly packed molecules are more dense than those where the molecules are spread out. Density plays a part in why some things float and some sink. Objects that are more dense than water sink and those less dense float. When an object floats, it pushes water out of the way ( displacement ).
How do magicians float?
The levitation of a magician or assistant can be achieved by a concealed platform or hidden wires, or in smaller-scale illusions by standing on tiptoe in a way that conceals the foot which is touching the ground.
