Here is your answer —
Liquids generally have lower density as compared to solids but ice floats on water. ... These spaces are larger as compared to spaces in water molecules. Thus the volume of ice is greater than water. Hence the density of ice is less than of water.

Answer:

Ice is formed by the freezing of water. When water freezes to form ice the number of empty spaces are created in solid ice (which were not present in liquid water) giving it a cage- like structure . Due to the presence of some empty places the volume of ice become more than and equal mass of water. Because of it greater volume the density of ice decreases and thus to its low density than water ice floats on water .
