<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Felsic rocks are the type igneous rocks which contain feldspar and quartz; and they are typically light in color. A rock which is classified as felsic is contains a high content of felsic minerals such as quartz, orthoclase, muscovite, plagioclase, etc.  

The common example of this type of rock is granite. Their chemical composition through the use of Total Alkali Silica determines the name of the felsic rocks. Felsic elements don't have enough magnesium, calcium and iron to form mafic rocks such as pyroxene or olivine.

A person could float most easily in water that has which characteristic? warm fresh low mass low freezing point.
Norma-Jean [14]

The buoyant force is a force which produces and upward pressure on a fully submerged or partially submerged object o the surface of water to make it float.

<h3>Floating</h3>

Floating means staying on the surface of water without getting drowned in the water due to the differences in forces from both the sides of the surface of water.

The lower the mass the higher the buoyant force applied on the object for its floatation. The water with low mass results in higher upward pressure that will help a person to float on the surface of the water easily.

Therefore it can be said that the water having a characteristic as lower mass will help the person to float easily on the surface of water.
