Katie is conducting a science experiment to compare the densities of different liquids. She pours equal amounts of oil, water, and syrup into three identical containers. She notices that the syrup sinks to the bottom of the container, the water remains in the middle, and the oil floats on top. Which liquid has the highest (most) density in this experiment?
a)
syrup, because it sinks to the bottom
b)
water, because it remains in the middle
c)
oil, because it floats on the top
