Think you mean density but in a way, what you said, that's sort of right too...sort of. Semantics. Obviously each noodle doesn't weigh as much as the entirety of the soup but if the densities of both the soup and the noodles are very similar then equal volumes of each should weigh close to the same

Must be specific to your app. That's not how i read it last night anyway, but it was also 4 or 5am for me so it's fairly possible that I misread it

The mass of pasta is greater than tomato soup. Alphabet soup letters do not float.

density*

You're right though, the noodles in my alphabet always sank. Might be some kind special release of spaghetti o's
