    lead, density: 11.3 g/cm³

    Explanation:

    me objects that sink in water will float on mercury, including pieces of lead, silver and steel. However, pieces of gold sink, since gold has a higher density then mercury does.

    enser items will sink on a media, but less dense will float. It is denser than iron, copper, lead, brass, nickel, silver, aluminum, tin, and concrete. That means that solid chunks of all those materials will float on mercury which is liquid at room temperatures
