Answer:

floating:

when a substance has a density less than that of the liquid , then the substance will float.

ex- density of water is 1g/cm3, when a piece of wood falls in the water whose density is 0.50g/cm3 it will float on it.

sinking:

substances whose density is more than that of the liquid they will sink

ex- the iron needle sinks into water because the density of water is 1g/cm3 and iron needle is 7g/cm3 thus the needle tends to sink in.
