================================

As we consider this statement SOLID IS MORE DENSER THAN LIQUID is not suitable in the case of water.

_________________________

Because incase of water, Due to hydrogen bonding the ice cube has less density than water at 9%.

so, the cube floats on water.

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

$\large\green{\underline{\underline{\mathscr{\red{\:\:\:\:\:Answer\:\:\:\:\:}}}}}$

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.
