Would ice float higher in water or corn syrup?

Ice floats in both water and corn syrup because it is less dense than either liquid. The density of ice is 0.917 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³), while the density of water is 1 g/cm³ and the density of corn syrup is 1.39 g/cm³. This means that ice displaces its own weight in water and corn syrup, and therefore floats on the surface.
