In which layers would a solid cube with 6 cm sides and a mass of 270 g float? Explain.

The buoyancy of an object is dictated by its density. So let us calculate for density, where:density = mass / volume

Calculate the volume first of a solid cube:volume = (6 cm) ^3 = 216 cm^3 = 216 mL

Therefore density is:density = 270 g / 216 mLdensity = 1.25 g / mL

Therefore this object will float in the layer in which the density is more than 1.25 g / mL.
