heya mate..!!

here is your answer..

Ice is certainly not heavier than water, or ice cubes and icebergs would not float. In fact, as ice becomes crystalline, it expands by approximately 10%. Water is in fact at its densest at 4°C due to the fact that, as water cools further, the formation of the crystals begins, slowly decreasing the water density.

hope it helps you..... plz mark as brainliest..

When water freezes, watermolecules form a crystalline structure maintained by hydrogen bonding. Solidwater, or ice, is less dense than liquid water. Ice is lessdense than water because the orientation of hydrogen bonds causes molecules to push farther apart, which lowers the density.
