Answer:
Water is more dense than alcohol or oil because its molecules can pack closely together, which means that it has more mass in the same volume than either alcohol or oil.

Hydrogen bonding in ethanol is lesser compared to that in water.
Density is mass per unit volume; due to hydrogen bonding, the molecules come closer and thus, more mass occupies the volume making water denser
