Best Answer

Per volume, cold water has more mass than hot water; cold water is therefore more dense. This is because, the molecular energy, and thus the molecular activity, of hot water is greater than that of cold water. Higher molecular activity equates to a larger separation of molecules which results in an increase in volume.

Hot water is not necessarilly cleaner than cold water.

However, if you boil water long enough, most bacteria and other pathogens will be killed. Boiling does not remove other impurities such as metal contamination or silt.
