Why do liquid have lower density. Compared to solids

Answer:

Liquids generally have lower density as compared to solids but ice floats on water. ... 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.

Answer:

Heya ✌️ ✌️

Often solids have a higher density than liquids because the atoms or molecules are packed more closely in an ordered fashion in the solid. Some metal alloys are non homogeneous solids. Water is a good exception however, as the packing structure of the water molecules decreases the density, hence ice floats on water.

Hope it helped
