The correct option that can be deduced for both Object P and Q is Option b) I and II only

To solve this question correctly, we need to understand the concept of density and it relation to mass and volume.

What is Density?

Density is a physical property of an object and can be expressed by using the relation:

[tex]\mathbf{Density = \dfrac{mass}{volume}}[/tex]

From the given parameters, we are being told that:

  • P → floats
  • Q → sinks

This implies that Q has a greater density that P. Since Q has a greater density than P, Q will be heavier since it will have greater mass.

However, Q will not be denser than water because if that happens, P will be have a greater density which is untrue in this scenario.

Therefore, we can conclude that:

  • 1. Q is heavier than P
  • II. 1cm³ of Q has a greater mass than 1cm³ of P
