Answer:

Yes, it will float.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

A liquid has a density of 0.85 g/cm³.

We know that, the density of water is 1 g/cm³.

The density of the liquid is less than that of water. If the density of the liquid is less than that of water, it will float in it. Hence, if you pour some of the liquid into a glass of water, it will float.
