Unique property of water is that of the three phases of this material - solid, liquid, and gas - the solid form is actually less dense than its liquid form. In other words - solid ice takes up more volume than liquid water. A chunk of ice will float in liquid water, somewhat counter-intuitive of what we learn about most other materials - as most others will contract at lower temperatures. This is due to the unique properties of the hydrogen bond and the resulting crystalline structure of ice.
