Basicly, liquid water is more dense then frozen water. That's why ice floats on water!

How can you separate substances of different densities?
Density Column to Separate Mixtures of SolidsYou could use a density column to separate mixtures of different solids by adding substances that have different densities. Then you would add in the solids, which would land or stop at a substance.
Does water sink or float?
does water sink or float in what? whether one solution "floats" or "sinks" when added to a 2nd solution depends largely on the relative densities of the two solutions. Generally the denser of the two will "sink", though other factors, such as polarity, come into play in certain situations (eg, mixing oil and alcohol).
20 kilos flour to litres?
There can be no conversion.A kilogram is a measure of mass. A litre is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.The masses of equal volumes of the two substances will clearly be very different. So there is no direct conversion between mass and volume: you need to know the density of the substance to enable you to carry out the conversion. Flours from different grains have different densities.
Does the mass of water decrease when salt is added?
Because the formula for density=Mass/Volume, so since density of water is always constant, when the volume (the amount of water) increases, then the mass (in grams) will also increase to make sure the density # is the same. Mass and Volume are directly proportional. when one goes up, the other goes up, and vice versa.
What is the difference between two things?
The difference between two things is what traits or characteristics set them apart; why they are different. For example:Water and IceThe difference between water and ice is that water is a liquid and water is not. Another thing is that ice is very cold and water can be warm.
Why aren't cooking oil and water miscible?
They have different densities, water being the heaviest of the two, so they do not mix.
If two solids have the same masses but different volumes they have?
If two solids have the same masses but different volumes they have different densities.
How can the volume of two substances be the same but the mass be different?
They have different densities.
What has to be different to allow refraction to occur?
The density. Refraction occurs at the boundary between two media of differing densities, such as air and water.
If two solids have the same masses and different volumes do they have different or equal densities?
different equal
Is volume conserved in a reaction between distilled water and ethanol?
No because they have different densities so the volume of the two combined will be slightly less.
Can two objects with the same volume have different masses if so why?
Yes they can, if they have different densities.
What two things have the same mass but different densities?
weight scale
Can two object have the same volume but different densities?
No,because if they have the same volume,that also means they need to have the same densities. > Density = mass / volume. Say they are different materials, such as water and iron. With an equal volume of both, the iron would be 7.85 times the weight. Therefore iron has 7.85 times the density of water.
Will objects made of different materials have different densities?
Usually yes. Each material has its characteristic density. Of course, it is possible for two different materials to have densities that are very close to one another.
What is the narrow region separating two air masses of different densities?
Fronts
How can two items have the same shape and size have different densities?
It doesn't have the same density because the two items can be different masses.
