Density

ρ = m/V · g/cm³ · floating & sinking · density column · particle model

Density Tower
Five layered fluids in order of density. Drag any object from the table and release it over the beaker — it settles at the matching layer. Use Drop All to reveal all at once.
AQA: ρ = m/V. Objects settle where their density equals the fluid density. Denser fluids sink to the bottom; less dense fluids float on top.
ρ = m/V · water = 1.00 g/cm³ · 1 g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³
CORK · ρ = 0.24 g/cm³ · floats · 24% submerged
SAME VOLUME · different atom count → different density
