Answer:Aluminium displaces more water

Explanation:

Given

mass of aluminium block=1 kg

mass of lead block= 1 kg

Also we know density of lead $=11.34 gm/cm^3$

Density of Aluminium $=2.70 gm/cm^3$

As the density of lead is more than that of Aluminium therefore its volume is lesser than Aluminium for same mass.

Thus aluminium displaces more amount of water as compared to lead.
