    Correct Answer
    A. Density
    Explanation
    An object's DENSITY is determined by comparing its mass divided by it's volume. If you compare a rock and a cork that are the same size (they have equal volume), which is heavier? The rock is, because it has more mass. The rock is denser than the cork, then, because it has more mass in the same volume.

    The same with liquids, the the heavier liquids will go the bottom and the lighter ones will raise to the top.
