The above statement is True.
Materials can be grouped on the basis of whether they will float or sink in water. Some materials float on the surface of the water as they are lighter than water and are called floating materials, for example, dried leaves, paper etc. Some materials sink to the bottom of the container in water as they are heavier than water and are called sinking materials, for example, stones, iron nails etc.
