density is a physical property of the material, it has nothing to do with the size of the piece. lead is 11.35 g/cc iron is 7.874 g/cc steel is between 7.75 and 8.05 depending upon type of steel.

Why does a piece of wood float when a piece of lead sinks and they both have the same volume?
The density of the wood is lower than the density of the water, so the water displaces the wood and is held to the 'floor' by gravity. Lead is more dense, so it can displace the water and sink.
What kind of solid sinks?
A solid that has a density greater than the density of the medium it is placed in (i.e. water). So a piece of lead is more dense than water, and so it sinks. Styrofoam is not very dense, and it floats.
