An ice cube is a solid. This means that its molecules hold tightly together and it retains its shape.
Water is a liquid. This means that its molecules are loosely bonded together, and gravity can pull them down. When it does, the molecules will spread out to fill the shape of the container they are in.
Because water is liquid therefore doesn't have a definite shape, unlike the ice cube which is solid now a and has a definite volume and shape and is already fit to shape its current container.

water liquid is in liquid form and it means that the atoms (H2 & O)s are free to move and takes w/e space of solid we give them. If it`s in a container it takes the space. if it`s spread on a table its flat.
but an ice cube is frozen and the atoms are frozen solid and it cant move at all it has a ``frozen`` shape of its own it doesnt need a container or anything to expand itself.
ice is nothing like water its just that its made of the same ting. ice is a solid and slides don't take they shape of the container because the particles are all tightly packed together.hope this helped :)
Liquid is much more tangible than ice if that's what your asking....
because solid are rigid while liquid are not
Solids have their own shape that does not depend on the container; the molecules in a solid are stronger linked.
A liquid mixture is a liquid material with a definite volume and no definite shape. A liquid mixture takes on the shape of the container it is in. Mixtures have two or more substances. Ocean water and oil and water are liquid mixtures.

Liquid = water, solid = frozen water, gas = water vapour.
Ice (solid) starts out as water (liquid) and when water freezes it becomes a solid.
when a liquid is placed in a container it takes the shape of the container. raindrops and teardrops are a shape that liquids have when you use a dropper, when drops of water fall from a faucet
Ice cubes are solid water.
Change of the state of water from a solid (ice cubes) to liquid (water).
They can;liquid to gas= evapouration(boiling water)liquid to solid=freezing(ice cubes)gas to liquid= condensation(steamy bathroom windows)solid to liquid= melting(ice cubes).
No, less dense. That's why ice cubes and bergs float.
Solids are the only phase of matter which have a fixed shape and volume.
No. Liquid water is more dense. This is why ice cubes float on liquid water.
it is liquid water
In the glass of water there are two different phases and two physical states (solid and liquid). It contains the same chemical composition or H20
oil.
the answer is that the shape it own because the state make it answer
A solid is another state of liquid. Usually, water is frozen into a solid (ice).
Because it changes from a solid shape (ice cube) to a liquid shape (Water)
