Nitrogen, N(2) being a gas at room temperature would float. Liquid Nitrogen, N(2) would immediately expand into the gaseous form on contact with water, therefore it would also float. Liquid Nitrogen is also a little less dense than water therefore would also float regardless of other circumstances.
