That would be pretty easy to find out with some basic equipment.  Take some 
sort
of measuring cup or some type of graduated container and measure the volume 
of
the object (the amount by which the water level rises is the volume.  If you
don't have that, fill some sort of comtainer to the very top.  Carefully 
place
the object in it and captue the water that spills out.  Weigh that water and
calculate how much volume that weight of water would have.  Either way, once 
you
have the volume, weigh the "thing" and divide weight by volume.
