Because they are of different materials. If the materials are same then there's no way they'd floats at different levels.

It is because of the densities of different matters the level of floating is different for them.

Can you float a block of steel in water?

Not as long as it's still in the shape of a block. But if you re-shape it into the shape of a cup ... whether round or rectangular ... it will float, because it displaces much more water than a block does. If your cup-shape is done artistically and with care, people may call it what it looks like ... a little "boat" or "ship". Those objects are usually made out of re-shaped blocks of steel.

What can float in the water?

Many things can float in water. An object will float based on 2 main factors. They are density and shape. If an object is too dense, it will sink. But why would shape matter? The shape of the object affects how the water is displaced. If the weight of the water displaced is more than the weight of the object that is touching the water, the object will float. So the shape affects how much water is displaced therefore determines if an object will float.
