Ice floats in water because it is less dense than water.
Water, or H2O is one of the only molecules that expands when the temperature drops. Most molecules condense, coming closer together and becoming 'heavier' whereas water expands- due to the shape of the H2O molecule
-making it more spacious and lighter- causing the ice to float above the heavier warmer water.
Ice float on water because the density is lower.
Yes ice will float in cold water or any water for the matter. For example icebergs are in fridge cold water (for the ocean can be extremely cold because of the salt and thus takes a colder temperature to freeze) and this still are afloat. Ice will actually float in warm or hot water for a bit until it is dissolved. So yes it can float in any sort of water despite the temperature.
Ice floats on water because it has a lower density than water. It flows on water when either it is blown by the wind or it is moved by water currents.
Ice floats in water because it is less dense than water. It is nothing to do with cohesion.
Yes because the density of ice is less
Ice float on water because the density is lower.
The density of water changes as it gets colder. Ice is less dense than water and so floats.
Because of the buoyancy of the Ice
Water floats when it is in the solid phase, called ice. Ice floats because the density of ice is less than the density of water.
Under normal circumstances, ice does float in water because it is less dense.
Because ice and oil are less dense that water.

The reason why ice will float in water is because ice is not as dense as water, therefore, it floats.
Ice floats on water because it has a lower density than water. It flows on water when either it is blown by the wind or it is moved by water currents.
They could both, ice can because it is cold, and water can to because it could be at any temperature. <><><> Ice, since it is colder than water. When water is below 32 degrees F, it becomes ice. So, water cannot be "any temperature".
Ice Cubes do float! This is because the density of ice is less than the density of liquid water.
