Why do ice cubes float in a  glass of water?

• the ice cubes are more dense than the water
• the water is more dense than the ice cubes
• the water is more dense than the glass
• the ice is more dense than the glass

Why do objects sink or float in H₂O? 

• Because their densities are higher or lower than compared to water
• Because their densities are using gravity to pull down
• Because their densities are heavier or lighter
• Because their mass and volumes are equal

Why do the liquids form different layers?

• They have different densities.  
• They have different masses.  
• They have different volumes.  
• They are different temperatures.
