It would be submerged in water.
Theoretically, the planet Saturn would float when placed in water because it has an average density that is less than the density of water. On the other hand, there is probably not enough water in the solar system to permit the experiment to be performed.
If you choose not to consider the planet as a whole, the atmosphere would float on the water but the rocky core would sink like a stone.
Since Saturn has a mean density of 0.687 g/cm3, less than that of water, it is nice to think that it would float in water. While that is (sort of) true, you also have to consider that Saturn is much colder than the freezing point of water, so it would freeze whatever water it was placed in. Also, Saturn's core is much denser than water, so one would also have to consider what happens when the atmosphere of Saturn is boiled away by the temperature of the water. In the final analysis, it is moot, because the volume of water required to attempt to float Saturn would exceed the volume of Jupiter, and we just don't have that much water available.
It would float because it has such a low density
It would be submerged in water.
Saturn is not very dense... or solid. It is a giant ball of gas. Water is more dense that Saturn, therefore, Saturn would float on water. ________________ More specifically, the density of Saturn is 0.69, where water is 1.0. So if Saturn were a solid (which it is not), it would float. Saturn is by far the least dense of all the planets; even Uranus at 1.32 and Jupiter at 1.33 are more dense than water is. Earth is the MOST dense planet at 5.52, edging out Mercury at 5.43 and Venus at 5.24 in average density.
Yes. A tornado on water is called a waterspout.
That would be Saturn, since it lacks in density it would be light enough to float in an ocean big enough for it.
Why scientists believe a liquid water ocean might exist on the moon
nothing-look at the ocean.
No, there is no water on Saturn.
It will sink
Saturn is the lighest of all of the plantes for it's size. If you were to stand on it's surface, you would weigh less than standing on Earth's surface. If you dropped Saturn into an ocean the size of space, then it would float because it is less dense than the water.

Yes; rivers run into the ocean at places called Estuaries. What evaporates from the ocean, and is dropped as freshwater in raindrops.
Dk prolly melt lol
It will sink.
It will sink.
Explain what would happen if a piece of seaweed from the ocean was placed in a fresh water aquarium?
Pacific Ocean
It will sink when the object is placed in water.
