Answer:
In general, the volume of liquid is more than the volume of solid as the particles of liquids are more free to move thereby more volume. But in case of ice, density of water is maximum at 4∘C. The density of ice is less than that of water. Therefore it floats on water.

Ice represents solid state of water. If we observe its 3D structure, a large empty space is found inside ice as a result it becomes less in weight as compared to water. Due to its specific structure though solid, ice floats on water.
