Density is a physical property. The density of an object will tell us if it will float or sink. Explain this.
What is Water has a density of 1g/ml therefore substances and objects with densities less than 1g/ml will float in water, and those with densities greater than 1g/ml will sink in water.

An inference is a statement that tries to explain an observation. Give an observation and an inference to go along with it.
What is answers may vary. example. The girl was sweaty, she must have just gotten out of gym class.

Explain why when you put an object in water, the water moves up? How can we use this information to figure out volume?
What is no two objects can be in the same place at the same time. Therefore, when an object is placed in water the amount of water equal to the volume of the object will move up. How ever much water was moved (or displaced) is the volume of the object.
