Yes, liquid water has about 9% higher in density than ice . So ice floats on the water (as you can see on lakes in freezing winter) because it is less dense than water.

Is density a physical change or chemical?

A change in density may accompany a Physical change. When liquid water becomes solid water, the solid water FLOATS; (is less dense) on top of its liquid form.Density itself is a physical property, not a change.

Water


How could you tell if a liquid has a higher or lower density than water?

If a liquid does not mix with water and you pour a little water on the liquid, then if the water sinks, the water has a higher density than the liquid; otherwise, the liquid has a higher density. If a drop of the water dissolves in the liquid, then you weigh an equal volume of both liquids. The heavier one has the higher density.
