- The (glass A) : Heavy and considerable, they displace a large quantity of water.
- The spoon (glass D) : Relatively heavy, it also displaces a lot of water.
- The pencil sharpener (glass C) : Moderately heavy, it displaces a moderate amount of water.
- The paperclip (glass B) : Small and light, it displaces very little water.
The answer
Glass B , containing the paperclip, holds the most water. The paperclip, being the lightest object, displaces the least water, allowing this glass to hold more water than the others.
