Answer:

hope will help

Explanation:

Ice floats because it is 9% less dense than water. In other words, ice takes 9% more space than water, so one litre of ice is less than one litre of water. Therefore, water is heavier than ice, the ice remains or sets in its place, which causes it to float on the water.

Each water molecule is made of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. ... Like most things that float, ice floats because it is less dense than liquid water. Ice is about 9% less dense. When ice forms, it takes up about 9% more space than it did as a liquid.
