Per 6 - On Tuesday, you all agreed that rocks sink when placed in water. However, when pumice (which is a type of volcanic rock) is thrown into water, it floats. Based on this, how can you justify the relationship between pumice’s mass and volume since it's able to float? by Sean Harrison https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa We will watch the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHLRDq4aJbc en-us 2021-10-08 13:20:54 UTC 2025-10-01 14:43:01 UTC hello@padlet.com Alejandro Valencia The density must be really low..... the mass is most likely a lot lower than the volume that's why the rocks are floating and not sinking https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817706166 2021-10-14 16:59:38 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817706166 Alexis Rodriguez https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817706780 Pumice rocks have holes on the inside of them which may help the rocks floating. The density has to be really low to kepp it floating.

They also float by trapped gas with the heat of the day. ]]> 2021-10-14 17:00:49 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817708887 Joseph Berardinelli https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817709202 The density of the rocks are probably really low, causing it to float. To figure out the density you need to divide the mass and volume, they both need to be just the right number to make the density a low number to make it float.]]> 2021-10-14 17:00:57 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817709202 Lorraine https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817710031 its proply the type of rock because it has very low density ]]> 2021-10-14 17:01:20 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817710031 Ethan R https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817711157 the holes in the rock may help it have a lower density]]> 2021-10-14 17:01:51 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817711157 benzoo 2572331 https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817711233 the rocks float because the density is very low]]> 2021-10-14 17:01:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817711233 Jagan J Garcia https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817711955 Maybe the volume of the pumice is very high, compared to its mass, allowing it to float in the body of water. ]]> 2021-10-14 17:02:13 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817711955 Jayden Molano 6126851 https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817713004 I think all of this is happening because the density is low so it makes it easier to float.]]> 2021-10-14 17:02:32 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817713004 Shania https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817713169 Pumice floats because the volume of the pumice is higher than the mass. ]]> 2021-10-14 17:02:35 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817713169 keith https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817713326 The rocks can be solid but still be able to float, that is because the density is very low, and because the mass is very low but the volume is higher then the mass itself which can cause the rocks in the ocean to float. ]]> 2021-10-14 17:02:40 UTC https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817713326 Joshua Dolmo https://padlet.com/bloomfield/dyc1qftoai318epa/wish/1817713331 Pumice is a  bubble-rich volcanic glass with low density.
