No, it is normally solids, water has a very unique property that only a few other materials have. its liquid is heavier than its solid form. This is due to the dipole-dipole interaction of cold water molecules making a crystal lattice.
However almost every other substance (excepting the rare few compounds such as silica), gets more dense the colder it is, this is why metal expands when hot and contracts when cold.

--------------------------
Solids are often more dense than liquids, but not always. For example ice is less dense than water, and thus it floats.
Gas densities vary based on pressure, temperature, volume and quantity. They will always be less dense than their corresponding liquids.
A liquid is denser as it can't float. To float, water, for instance, must be subjected to warmth causing evaporation resulting in mists and clouds in the sky, or heat causing steam with which to power a steam-engine.
A gas is lighter than a liquid as it can float in the air (Carbon Dioxide is dense and flows down to the ground, also very cold air flows downhill too, but they are still gases).

The process of converting a liquid to a gas is called what?
evaporation solid to liquid - melting liquid to gas - evaporation gas to liquid - condensation liquid to solid - freezing solid to gas and gas to solid - sublimation
Which phase change does not involve changing a liquid into a gas?
The liquid to gas phase change is vaporizing; the reverse is condensing. The other phase changes are: - solid to liquid: melting - liquid to solid: freezing - solid to gas: sublimation - gas to solid: deposition
Is a banana solid liquid or gas?
A solid.
What has more energy gas liquid or solid?
Solid has more energy. It has extensive energy as compared to liquid and gas.
Is gas more dense then rock?
rock is denser than gas because it is a solid

General classes of colloids are: gas in liquid, gas in solid, liquid in gas, liquid in liquid, liquid in solid, solid in gas, solid in liquid, solid in solid.
Is natural gas more or less dense than oil?
Of course less denser, because a gas is always less denser than liquid.
What are physical changes in matter?
There's a bit more than 3. gas -> liquid (condensation) liquid -> gas (evaporation) liquid -> solid (freezing) solid -> liquid (melting) solid -> gas (sublimation) gas -> solid (deposition) gas -> plasma (ionozation) Plasma -> gas (deionozation)
Which of these exerts more friction-a gas or solid or liquid?
A solid
Are your body's made of more liquid gas or solid?
Liquid
How does sound travel in solid liquid and gas?
By making the substance vibrate. The denser the material, the faster the sound travels. Most solids are denser than most liquids, which are denser than most gasses.
What is a flower a solid liquid or gas?
solid
