It depends on the units you are using for density.
Typically, water is thought to have a density of "1" at 4 degrees Celcius. But that is assuming you are using (g/cm3) as your units.
Density of water is dependent upon other factors such as impurities in the water as well.
It would appear that a critical bit of information: the density of the substance is missing.
Furthermore, the answer depends on whether or not the substance is soluble or miscible in water. The density of salt is greater than 1 but it will dissolve. The density of alcohol is less than 1 but it will mix.
B. Sink
float
Sink like a rock. Water has a density of 1.0g per cm3. Anything denser will sink and anything less dense will float, assuming it does not dissolve. Most oils range from 0.8 to 0.9 and will float on water. After the beginning of a rain, you can often find oil floating on the water on the road.
A substance with approximately the same density as water.
Less than that of the substance it is floating on.
0,00045 dag/mm3.
A substance with density equal to 2.1 gcm3 it's sinking in water.
A substance with a density of 1.3gcm-3 would sink in water. Float (APEX)

It depends upon the temperatures and purity of the two quantities of water. If they are both at the same temperature and both have the same purity, they will both have the same density as density does not depend upon the volume, but the substance itself. If they are at different temperatures, or have different purities, then they will have different densities, but which would be greater would depends upon which has which temperature and which purity.
Compared to a low density substance and all other things being equal, it would be heavier.
A substance with approximately the same density as water.
Density. Since density = mass/volume, if you have a substance A, it has density(A), which is given in a standard form of ## grams per cm^3 (cubic centimeter) or mL (milliliter). The density of water is 1.0g/mL. Thus, suppose the mass of substance A is 10 grams and it's volume is 5 cm^3. Then, it's density is 2g/mL. If you looked at 5cm^3 (or 5mL) of water, it's mass would be 5 grams. Therefore, the ratio of the two masses of equal volumes substance A and water is exactly the ratio of the two densities, which equals the density of substance A.
Density = mass / volumeThe density of an object affects how it will float in another. Example the density of hydrogen is ~ 0.08 g / L whereas the density of air is ~ 1.2 g/L. Therefore, hydrogen floats in air.For an object to float in water it has to have a density less than 1.0 g/mL or 1.0kg/L.densities can be compared to see if an object will float.densities of pure substance can be checked with reference books or online. If a substance is impure then its density will not be the same as the reference value. Densities can be compared to check if the substance is pure. When Indiana Jones replaced a block of gold with an equal volume of water to avoid a trap springing would not have worked. Why? Density of gold is 19.3 times heavier than an equal volume of water.
