liquuds have lower density than solid then why ice floats on water??

when ice is formed there are air pockets in it which lower the density of the ice than water. hence the ice floats

its because of the anamalous expansion of water when water freezes at 0-4degres celcius it expands instead of contraction which makes its density lower and it floats in water

because Ice has a cage like structure due to hydrogen bonding so it's density is less than water that's why it floats on water..... hope it will help u .... plzz mark as brainlist
i don't know
yeah it is bu i think it is only in liquid form
anamalous expansion states that water expands at 0-4degrees celsius and hence its volume increases making its density decrease and it floats in water
yeah but wate is liquid in that temperaure range
temp alone dosent determine the state if atmospheric pressure it less it can be a solid before its normal freezing poimt
point*
thanks for the explaination
ur welcome
bye guys!!
bye
