The sink-float method is often used to identify the type of glass material found at crime scenes by determining its density. Several different types of glass of known density are placed into solutions of varying densities. Determine whether each glasspiece will sink, float, or do neither when immersed in the given solution.

Explanation:

The density of an object is a ratio of the mass (or quantity of matter in the object) to its volume.

Mathematically, density = mass/ volume.

The more dense an object, the higher will be its dense. Density can be thought of as a comparison of how heavy objects having the same are. Objects with a higher density, are heavier than objects with a lower density. For example, between equal volumes of air and water, water is heavier.

The density of solid object will determine whether it will float, sink or neither float nor sink in a given liquid. The conditions for floating of objects in a liquid is given as follows:

Density of solid > Density of liquid : solid will sink

Density of solid = Density of liquid : solid will neither sink nor float

Density of solid < Density of liquid : solid will float

Using the above criteria to analyze the given glass materials in their respective liquids:

assuming that your periodic table has eighteen columns, you should highlight   the four elements in the third column from the left of the table.

neutral atoms of elements after calcium contain d electrons. the energy of d orbitals of a particular main shell lies between the energy of the s and p orbitals of the next main shell. for example, electrons in the have energy higher than those in the orbital while lower than those of the orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the orbital is therefore filled right after orbitals and before orbitals.  

potassium has electron configuration and calcium . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration and satisfy the requirements.

a neutral atom of the element contains three electrons on top of the most recent noble gas element. it should thus be placed in the third column of the periodic table. both scandium and yttrium would satisfy the conditions. an aufbau diagram indicates that the 4f orbital is filled before the 5d. however, it appears that exceptions exists for both lanthanum and actinium. neutral atoms of the two d-block elements also demonstrate the and should be highlighted as well.
