Answer:

An object that is less dense than the liquid it is in will float on top of the liquid. An object that is more dense than the liquid it is in will sink to the bottom. The ice cube is less dense then the water so it will float on the top. The ice cube is more dense then the ethyl alcohol so it will sink to the bottom.
