Because of the anomalous expansion of water, when the temperature reaches 40C, the water remains at the surface of the lake, sea or river. This is because as temperature decreases from 40C to 00C, water expands.

Answer:
The anomalous expansion of water is an abnormal property of water whereby it expands instead of contracting when the temperature goes from 4

C to 0

C, and it becomes less dense. The density is maximum at 4 degree centigrade and decreases below that temperature as shown in graph. The density becomes less and less as it freezes because molecules of water normally form open crystal structures when in solid form.
