Given an identical volume of both to begin with (say, one gallon hot water, and one gallon cold water) they will be identical in weight. However, cold water is more dense than hot water.
You are wrong ! - Cold water is heavier ( denser ) than hot water.
cold water is much heavier than hot water . the water becomes warm
Hot and cold water can separate due to differences in their temperature and density. When hot and cold water are combined, the hot water tends to rise to the top because it is less dense than the colder water below. This process is known as thermal stratification.
Water is made of tiny pieces called molecules. Heat makes molecules excited. They jump around and move quickly! They need space to do this. Cold, on the other hand, makes molecules slow down and it can make them nearly stop. They don't need as much room to move around and the space between them shrinks! It would seem that cold water would have to be denser than warm water.
Hot water is less dense than cold water. So if you have equal volumes of both,then the cold one is heavier than the hot one.* That's why we build stoves in such a way as to heat the bottom of the pot ...that's where the colder liquid is.

When cold water is poured into hot water, it sinks because it is denser than the hot water. The cold water is heavier due to the molecules being closer together at a lower temperature, causing it to sink to the bottom. The hot water, which is less dense, rises to the top.
Hot air rises, so is lighter than cold air.
No, cold water is not hot. Cold water is at a lower temperature than hot water.
Hot is the heavier molecule.
Yes. Cold water is slightly heavier than hot water. (That's why stoves are built to heat the bottom of the pot, not the top.)
Gas is heavier than oxygen. Cold air is heavir than hot air
