Icebergs and ice are less dense than water, so they naturally float. The way their molecules are organised they have way more volume for the amount of mass they have than equal mass of liquid water.
Cold water can be denser than warmer water, the molecules are closer together and not vibrating as much, so it sinks below warmer or less denser water (or any other liquid). It's the opposite of what happens with icebergs, even though they're made of the same stuff.

Why do icebergs float in any sea?
this is because when the temperture drops in cold parts of the earth the ice breaks up and follows the water current in the sea
How do you know when a goo alien alive?
put your alien in a bowl of cold water if it floats its alive and if it doesnt float and it sinks its dead
Why when you Flush hot water gets hot in sinks and showers?
When you flush your toilet, cold water is used, this diverts cold water from the sinks and showers, resulting in diminished cold water flow momentarily at the sinks and showers, so, less cold mixed with hot, = hotter sinks and showers.

Does ice float in cold water?
Yes ice will float in cold water or any water for the matter. For example icebergs are in fridge cold water (for the ocean can be extremely cold because of the salt and thus takes a colder temperature to freeze) and this still are afloat. Ice will actually float in warm or hot water for a bit until it is dissolved. So yes it can float in any sort of water despite the temperature.
Does hot water rise and cold water sink?
HOT rises COLD sinks
Does cold water float?
yes
Why do we get more fog over icebergs?
Fog forms over icebergs because the cold temperatures of the ice cause the relatively warmer air above it to cool rapidly and reach its dew point, leading to the condensation of water vapor into tiny water droplets that appear as fog. The temperature difference between the cold ice and the surrounding air enhances the fog formation over icebergs.
What egg will float faster an egg with cold water or an egg with hot water?
Cold water.
When warm air approaching the cold air goes under or over the cold air?
The cold air is denser, so cold air usually sinks down, and warmer air will float to the top.

Will an egg float in ice cold water?
Only an altered egg float.
