What is the width and thickness of a 2 x 6?
your question is unclear We can make some assumptions though. If you talk about a piece of wood, then the scale is most likely Inches. That would mean that you have a unspecified length of wood that is 6 inches wide and 2 inches thick. If however talking about steel, then the measurement is probably in Centimeters. An unspecified length of steel/iron that is 2 centimeters thick and 6 centimeters wide. This would probably be a hollow length of some material.

Why does same sized piece of wood is lighter than iron piece?
The wood is "lighter" (weighs less; has less mass) than the iron because of it's density. Iron has a greater density than wood, and density is defined as mass/volume, so having the same volume (size), the iron will have a greater mass.
Why wood floats in water?
Wood mostly floats in water because it has a lower density than water. it is NOT lighter than water, it is LESS DENSE. water has a density of 1.0 g/cm cubed. that means wood usually has a density of .99 or less. But, not all wood floats, keep that in mind
