Solution
The correct option is C Aluminium folding chair
Steel ships and soccer balls are mostly hollow or filled with air and hence have a much lower average density than seawater or even water, meaning they can float on water.
Plastic itself is lighter than water. So, it doesn't matter if the bottle is open or closed, either way it will float.
A folding chair isn't hollow and aluminium doesn't float. It is most likely to sink.
