Question

why ice floats on water?​

Answer 1

Ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water. In other words, ice takes up about 9% more space than water, so a liter of ice weighs less than a liter water. The heavier water displaces the lighter ice, so ice floats to the top.

Answer 2

Answer:

Beacuse its less dense.

Explanation:

We all know that solids are more denser than liquid but in case of ice and water.

In ice cubes there are small gaps between the crystal structure of ice which makes its less dense and it floats on water.

You can "imagine" it as a sponge. But its NOT anything like sponge.
