Yes
The most common example is H20. Ice is less dense than water, so whenever say a river freezes, ice floats on top rather than sinking to the bottom.
Solids are more dense than liquids. This is because of their atomic or molecular configuration. Atoms or molecules in solids are more closely arranged compared to atoms or molecules in liquids.
For most substances, the solid phase is more dense than the liquid and gas phases. The liquid phase is less dense than the solid phase but more dense than the gas phase, and the gas phase is less dense than either the solid or liquid phases. Water is an exception. Its solid phase (ice) is less dense than the liquid phase.
hmmm, water??? lol, joking!
Put the "something" into the liquid, and see if it will float.
No. It is more dense.
Ice is a solid less dense than the liquid
solid with hydrogen bonds making it less dense than its liquid form
Solid water, ice, is less dense than its liquid state. This is essential for aquatic life. Since ice is less dense than liquid water, it floats to the top of of the water. This insulates the water beneath the ice, allowing the water beneath the ice to remain liquid. For other substances, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state.
Less dense. For most substances, the solid form is more dense than the liquid form; water is a notable exception.Less dense.

float, depending on its density relative to the density of the liquid. If the solid is denser than the liquid, it will sink. If the solid is less dense than the liquid, it will float.
This is called anomalous expansion or the anomaly of water. It means that when water freezes, its solid form (ice) is less dense than its liquid form, which is why ice cubes float in water.
Liquid magma is less dense than solid rock because it is a molten mixture of rock, minerals, and gases. When magma rises to the Earth's surface and cools, it solidifies into igneous rock.
Solid water, ice, is less dense than liquid water and floats on top. The solid state of other substances is more dense than the liquid state and will sink in the liquid.
solid will be settling at the bottom because liquid can not be denser than solid due to their arrangements of their molecules.
