Exploring the World of Scales

A diagram shows a balance scale with two identical containers of water. On the left, a small dark gray 1kg iron ball is submerged. On the right, a larger light gray 1kg aluminum ball is submerged. The text above asks 'Which way does the scale tip?' implying a physics puzzle about buoyancy and density. The scale is drawn perfectly level, suggesting the answer is counterintuitive.
