A stone sculpture weighs 225 g and has a volume of 90 cm³. Calculate its density and predict whether it will float Class 8

A stone sculpture weighs 225 g and has a volume of 90 cm³. Calculate its density and predict whether it will float or sink in water. Class 8

Answer:

Density. of stone = 225 / 90 = 2.5 g/cm³

As the density of stone is more than the density of water (1g/ cm³) therefore it will sink in water.
