How does the density of water (ice) compare with the density of water (liquid)?

Ice is less dense than liquid water.


What causes ice to float in liquid water?

When water is frozen, it expands, so ice has a greater volume than water. Also, since density is the volume of an object divided by its mass, and since ice has the same mass as water, the density of ice is slightly less than water, causing it to float on water.


How does the density of ice compare to the density of water?

Ice is less dense than liquid water.


What is the difference between the density of ice than to water in liquid state?

Water at 293K =20 oC Liquid at room temperature, density = 0.998 kg/L Water at 277K = 4 oC Liquid near freezing to ice, density = 1.000 kg/L Water at 268K =-5 oC Ice near melting to water, density = 0.917 kg/L


Do ice and water have the same density?

no. Density of ice is more than of water...we can understand from ice sinking in water drinks... Edited by Dr.J. : How is it possible for the density of ice to be more (greater) than that of liquid water if ice FLOATS on lakes and rivers? Clearly, the density of ice is LESS than that of liquid water.


Why do ice cubes float to the top of glass of water?

Ice cubes float in water because they are less dense than liquid water. The solid water molecules in ice are spaced farther apart than the molecules in liquid water, causing the ice to be less dense. This difference in density allows the ice cubes to float on the surface of the water rather than sink.


What is the only substance that has a greater density as a liquid than a solid?

Water has higher density than ice. That is why ice floats on water.


Is there a liquid with less density than ice?

Ethanol is less dense than water ice.


Do icecubes float?

Ice Cubes do float! This is because the density of ice is less than the density of liquid water.


What is the only solid that floats in its liquid?

The only solid that floats in its liquid is ice. This occurs because the density of ice is lower than the density of liquid water, allowing it to float on the surface.


Why is ice solid weird?

You think probable to the density, lower than the density of liquid water.


Why do a liquid water forms under the blade of ice skate?

because spesific density of ice is less than the density of water
