Is warm or cold water denser?

its according to what other temperature of water you are comparing it to. water is densest at 4 degrees C so water that is colder then 4 degrees C is technically less dense then water at 4C. in that case the warmer water is denser. but if you mean warm water to be >4C and cold water to be colder then warm water, but not below 4C, then cold water is more dense then warm water. but the question you are probably trying to get answered would have an answer of cold is denser


What is mean by ice cold water?

Ice is cold, right? So the term 'ice cold water' is just comparing the temperature of the water to the temperature of the ice.
