Density Of Liquid

Density= Mass/Volume
The density of a liquid can also be measured using a simple device known as a hydrometer.
Literally meaning "water measurer," a hydrometer is an instrument comprised of a vertical scale inside a sealed glass tube weighted at one end. It's used to measure the ratio (called specific gravity) of the density of a liquid grape to that of pure water.
Densities for some common liquids are:
Substance Density (gm/cu.cm)
Water 1.00
Cooking oil 0.92
Sea Water 1.025
Carbon tetrachloride 1.58
Benzene 0.87
Glycerin 1.26
Methanol 0.79

Measurement of the density of beer wort is done using a hydrometer, a weighted float-like device with a scale in it. Reading the density (as specific gravity, where 1.000 = water density) allows calculation of alcoholic content of the final brew.
Hydrometers are simple to use, and come in many ranges for liquids both more and less dense than water. They're used in many industrial processes as well, permitting the calculation of percent chemical concentration in a wide vareity of solvents.

No, the object would sink because it is MORE dense than the liquid

Weigh it.
Measure it's volume.
Divide.
