Vegetable oil has the density of .92 g/mL and honey has the density of 1.42 g/mL. Which liquid will float?

If you are saying float in water, than it is vegetable oil, as it has a lower density, in other ways lighter than water, so it will float if it is poured onto water. Honey has a higher density than water and way higher density than vegetable oil, therefore being heavier and more dense it will go down to the bottom.
