Water becomes dense when it is more saturated than absorbing a solution. For example, salt with make water more dense because as more salt is added, it becomes saturated.
Because the particles is the water can spread out more as the water spreads. Thats what we learnt at school anyway.
In the Mediterranean Sea the cool dense water sinks under less dense water which is called density current.
Dense
ICE ... Think of a glass of water with ice cubes in it. They float! Water actually expands when it is frozen, making it less dense.
water density at 4 degree cel is minimum and as the temperature reduces the density decreases and at 0 deg the water density become lowest. thereafter it catches 80 kcal /kg the latet heat and starts become ice. this is the reason the ice is floating on water.
Cooler material is more dense and hotter material is less. This means that plates become more dense as they cool.
It becomes less dense. Ice will float on water
Because the same amount of matter now occupies a larger space, therefore decreasing its density.
As water eats up, it expands. There is still the same amount of water, but now in a larger space so it is less dense than cold water.

Cold Water. Water expands when it freezes, which makes ice less dense.
Ice. It expands when it's 0 degrees Celsius.
less denser than
Yes, the density of water is dependent on its temperature, but the relation is not linear. When cooled from room temperature liquid water becomes increasingly dense, just like other substances. But at approximately 4 °C, water reaches its maximum density. As it is cooled further under ambient conditions, it expands to become less dense.
When you freeze water it expands so it is less dense than liquid water therefore more buoyant so it floats.

No. I*f it were, ice would sink in a glass of water. As water freezes, it expands, and becomes less dense.
