Water's solid and liquid forms have different densities while most other substances have solid and liquid forms with similar densities. Water's solid form is less dense than its liquid form while the opposite is true of most other substances.

If the water gets freeze and the molecules do not stack into a close packed structure.
At the time of water is unusual which not unique support is.
On the other hand the elemental silicon form gets relatively open and filled with the tetrahedral structure at the solid.
Therefore the water has additional volume.
