yes and anything ligher than the approximate density of gasoline listed at 0.71–0.77 kg/L...or about 719.7 kg/cubic meter.

see the list about midway on this page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

so anything lower in density than the potassium. also understood in my reading that density can be temperature and pressure dependent.

The dreams and hopes of any motorhead will float on gasoline.

Anybody who is wise in the ways of science knows that a duck floats on anything.

A concrete boat.

Mainly just wondering the CsT of gasoline and water.

Also intriguing to know if there is a liquid with a lower number Cst than gasoline.

Lightest I am currently aware of is a 5w-20 that is about 6-7 CsT at 100C.
 
Viscosity (cst) and
Density (lb/gal)

are completely different units of measure for different behaviours.

The former has nothing to do with what floats on each other, unless maybe a skimboard on the surf's edge.
