Interesting Question. I would say Yes. However, be aware that there is another force that could hold the ice cube. That is viscosity. Viscosity is a force resists movement of fluid over a solid surface. For the cube to "float" means the weight of the cube of ice is lighter than the weight of the ketchup that it displaces.
Two different forces going on.

∙ 14y agoA liquid that is less dense than ice. Pure alcohol is 70% of the density of water- and ice would not float in it.
its ice
If ice didn't expand during freezing it wouldn't float. If ice didn't float, the oceans would be frozen and life would most likely never have developed.

Ice float on water because the density is lower.
The density in the ice cream.
Ice floats in water and alcohol because it is less dense than both liquids, displacing an amount of liquid that has a greater weight. However, ice sinks in mercury because mercury is much denser than water and alcohol.
Yes, it would actually float. While less liquids sink right to the bottom
yes, ice does float in water. it will eventually melt and change into water.
They float, as ice is less dense than water.

No, ice is more dense than air. Ice has a higher density due to its solid form, while air has a lower density as a gas.
