Ice is iess dense than water, which allows it to float on liquid water. Why does this happen?

Answers

Answered by ay3633978

Ice floats on water because it has less density than water.

This happens because ice takes up more space than water, so a liter of ice weighs less than a liter water. The heavier water displaces the lighter ice, so ice floats to the top.
