You have to look at the density of the object to know if it’s going to sink or swim.

bouyancy and density.

Buoyancy acts against the force of gravity and so makes objects seem lighter with respect to gravity..

A small, heavy object, such as a rock or a lump of lead, is denser than a lighter object of the same size or a larger object of the same weight, such as pieces of cork or foam.

If the density of the object is less than water, it will float. If it’s not, it will sink.

its density. (if the object is more dense than water, it will sink. If it’s less dense, it will float. If it’s equal, it will suspend.
