No, they aren’t equal.
The density of water is 1.00 g/cm³.
So the volume of 100 g of water is100 g×1 cm31 g=100 cm3
The density of ice is 0.92 g/cm³.
So the volume of 100 g of ice is100 g×1 cm30.92 g=109 cm3
The volume of ice is greater than that of the same volume of water.That's why ice floats on water.

No, the volumes of same amount of water and ice are not equal. It is because their densities are different.

Proof:
Let the amount of water taken = M gram
We know that density = mass×volume
⇒ volume = mass/density

If it is water,
mass = M g
density = 1 g/cm³
volume of water = mass/density = M/1 = M cm³

If it is ice,
mass = M g
density = 0.916 g/cm³
volume of ice= mass/density = M/0.916 = 1.09M cm³

As we can see, the volume of ice is 1.09M cm³ whereas the volume of water is M cm³. So the volumes are not equal.


TPS: Thanks yaar!
