Answer:

0.96 g/cm3, and it will float!

Step-by-step explanation:

I've explained how to do this before (remember me? lol), but ig I'll do it again..

By looking at the graph you can see that Object C has a mass of ~24 grams and a volume of ~25 cm3

Density = Mass/Volume -> 24 grams/25 cm3 = 0.96 g/cm3

Density of water is 1 g/cm3

Object C is less dense than water and therefore will float (just barely, though)

:)
