Compared to the density of liquid water, the density of an ice cube is

• always greater

• always the same

• always less

• sometime less and sometimes greater

The diagram to the right represents a cylinder which contains four different liquids, W, X, Y, and Z, each with a different density (D) as indicated. A piece of solid quartz having a density of 2.7 g/cm³ is placed on the surface of liquid W. When the quartz is released, it will pass through:

• W, but not X, Y or Z

• W and X, but not Y or Z

• W, X and Y, but not Z

• W, X, Y and Z
