Question

1. draw conclusions: what is the relationship between the object density, the liquid density, and the tendency of the object to float?

Explanation:

An object floats when its density is less than the density of the liquid it is placed in. If the object's density is greater than the liquid's density, it sinks. If they are equal, the object is neutrally - buoyant.

Answer:

An object will float if its density is less than the density of the liquid. If the object's density is greater than the liquid density, it will sink. If the object's density is equal to the liquid density, it will be neutrally - buoyant and can remain at any level in the liquid.
