Salt and sugar both dissolve in water, thereby increasing its mass. Salt is approximately 40% more dense than sugar, and thereby the salt water is more dense than sugar water (when either are added in the same quantities by volume).

Why is sugar water more buoyant than fresh water?
Water with any added solute (salt, sugar) is more dense (heavier) than fresh water.A sugar-water solution is denser than plain water, i.e. it weighs more per volume. Any displacement by a floating object will displace its weight in the liquid. For denser liquids, this represents a smaller volume displaced, and the object will not sink as far into the liquid.
