• D. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Iron has more density than sponge

We have 2 materials here in which iron is metal and Sponge is non-metal.

Metals have usually high density as compared to non-metals.

$Density\times Volume=Mass$

Iron occupies less space because it has high density.
