Answer:

Liquids generally have lower  density as compared to solids.HOWEVER ice is an exception .

Ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water. In case of water, when it 'freezes into ice', it becomes less dense because of 'Hydrogen bonding'. The water that is heavy displaces the ice that is light in weight, so the ice floats on the top of the water.

Hydrogen-bonding forms in liquid water as the hydrogen atoms of one water molecule are attracted towards the oxygen atom of a neighboring water molecule; generally, a proton shared by two lone electron pairs. ... Hence, the oxygen atom is partially negatively charged, and the hydrogen atom is partially positively charged.
