Question

Liquids generally have lower
density as compared to solids
But you must have observed that
ice floats on water. Find out why.

pls help me​

Answer 1

Answer:

Because ice is a solid it has large amount of space between its molecules. 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. A substance with low density than water can float on it.

Density of ice is less than the density of water.The low density of ice can be attributed to the small pores it was which allows it to trap air.Hence ice floats on water.
