Heating a substance causes molecules to speed up and spread slightly further apart, occupying a larger volume that results in a decrease in density. ... Hot water is less dense and will float on room-temperature water. Cold water is more dense and will sink in room-temperature water

Density is the ratio of mass to volume. When the temperature varies, the volume of the liquid changes.
Eg. Liquids expand on heating.
So due to this change is volume, the density varies with change in temperature.
