Answer:

if the object sank then that object has a greater density then water. if the object floated then its density is lower then water.

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say object 1 has a density of 24/cm3. the density is greater then water (1.0000g/cm3) so it would sink. now lets say object 2 has a density of 0.79383g/cm3 since it's less then the density of water (1.0000g/cm3) it would float.
