Answer:

This may be useful for you

Explanation:

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.

Because when water turn into ice the density of particles of ice become closer as compared to water. Hence ice floats on water.
