The statement that "Saturn can float on water" is based on its average density. Density is the measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume, calculated as: br br Density br = br Mass br Volume br Density= br Volume br Mass br ​ br br Saturn’s Density: br Saturn has an average density of 0.687 gcm³, which is less than water’s density (1 gcm³). This makes it the least dense planet in the solar system. br br What Floating Means: br An object floats in a liquid if its density is lower than the liquid’s density. Since Saturn’s average density is lower than water’s, in theory, it could float. br br Why It’s Not Practical: br Saturn is huge: Its volume is over 760 times that of Earth. br There’s no bathtub big enough: To float, Saturn would need an ocean large enough to hold it—something impossible on Earth. br Not a solid object: Saturn is a gas giant, mostly made of hydrogen and helium. If placed in water, it wouldn’t stay intact but would likely compress and react with the water. br So, while Saturn theoretically has a low enough density to float, in reality, this is just a fun fact about its composition rather than a physically possible scenario.
