Why dosent an ice cube float in air?

An ice cube is the frozen form of water, therefore being a solid, and since it is a solid, the force of gravity applies to it. So, like most other solids, it simply just drops down onto the ground. For anything to float it must have density lower than the medium in which it sits. The density of ice is greater than that of air, though it is lower than that of water. Hence ice does not float in air bur does float in water.
