It is very dense
Mrs. Black threw a rock in the lake and observed it sink. Mrs. Wilson threw her apple in the lake and observed it float. Why did the rock sink and the apple float?
The density of the rock was more than the density of the apple. OR The density of the rock was greater than the density of the water and the density of the apple was less than the density of the water.
