No. Ice is less dense than water. Because ice is less dense it displaces less water and floats.
Water is most dense at 4o C. any change in temperature, either up or down, lowers the density.

Is ice the most dense form of water?
No. In fact, ice is usually less dense than liquid water.
Is Liquid water less dense or more dense?
Liquid water is more dense than ICE , and More dense than water vapour(steam). Liquid water is at its most dense at 2 oC. Water on freezing to ice expands by about 10% of its volume. This is because of the lattice arrangement of water molecules in ice., which does not occur in liquid water., Hence ice floats on water. (icebergs).
Frozen water is less dense than liquid water what does this allow ice to do?
Float
What type of solid is less dense than its liquid form?
Ice is less dense than water at the freezing temperature. That's why ice cubes and bergs float in water.
Is ice water more dense than liquid water?
Water is most dense at +4 Celsius. This is why lakes do not freeze to the bottom at winter. Solid ice is less dense than water.
Is a ice cube more or less dense than liquid water?
Ice cubes are less dense than liquid water, which is why they float.
Is liquid water less dense than ice cubes?
No. Liquid water is more dense. This is why ice cubes float on liquid water.
What is a way to see that ice is less dense then liquid water?
Put ice cubes in a glass of water. They will float, indicating that they are less dense than liquid water.
What is an example of a solid that Is less dense than a liquid?
Solid water, ice, is less dense than its liquid state. This is essential for aquatic life. Since ice is less dense than liquid water, it floats to the top of of the water. This insulates the water beneath the ice, allowing the water beneath the ice to remain liquid. For other substances, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state.
How does the density of water (ice) compare with the density of water (liquid)?
Ice is less dense than liquid water.
Is ice the most dense form of water?
No. In fact, ice is usually less dense than liquid water.
Does ice float because water becomes more or less dense when its frozen?
The structure of frozen water (ice) is less dense than the random arrangement of the water molecules in liquid water, thus ice floats because water becomes less dense when it is frozen. Because of buoyancy forces, an object placed in a liquid will float if it is less dense than the liquid and sink if it is more dense.
Is ice less dense than warm water?
Yes, ice is less dense than liquid water, regardless of its temperature. Dry ice will sink.
Is water less dense as ice than as liquid?
Yes.
Is liquid water less dense than ice?
yes it is
Is Liquid water less dense or more dense?
Liquid water is more dense than ICE , and More dense than water vapour(steam). Liquid water is at its most dense at 2 oC. Water on freezing to ice expands by about 10% of its volume. This is because of the lattice arrangement of water molecules in ice., which does not occur in liquid water., Hence ice floats on water. (icebergs).
Ice is less dense than water because of which type of bond?
Ice is less dense than liquid water because of hydrogen bonds.
