If they float in water, then it is because the density of a ping pong ball is lighter than the density of water. The density of water is just below 1, and the density of a ping pong ball is much less than 1.


Which floats a baseball or a ping pong ball?

This depends upon what liquid you are placing the baseball in to. When the volume of liquid displaced by putting the object into it is less than the weight of whatever you put in, it will float. So, if a baseball weighs 300g and it is in water, and it displaces 400g of water (because of the baseballs volume), then it will float.
