.  If the volume of a cube of wood is 15.625 cm3 and its mass is 10.00 g, show the calculation for the density of the wood.
      D=m/v
      m = 10.00
      v = 15.625
    10.00/15.625 = .64



    .Based on the density of the wood that you calculated above, would the wood float or sink if it is placed in a bowl of water? Explain your answer. Remember that the density of liquid water is 1.00 g/cm3

Remember that whether an object floats or sinks is dependent on its density in contrast to the density of the liquid. If it is less than the liquid's density, it will float. If its density is greater, it will sink.

As the wood is less dense than the water, it will float.
