Ice is NOT more dense than water; unlike most solids, a quantity of water will expand when frozen, thus decreasing the density and causing it to float. This is due to the strong forces caused by the powerful hydrogen bonds between the H and the O atoms of nearby water molecules.
Fresh water is less dense than salt water, so it floats on top of the more dense salt water. This is due to differences in their salinity levels, with salt water being more concentrated. The less dense fresh water sits above the denser salt water due to the principle of buoyancy.
Liquid water is more dense than ICE , and More dense than water vapour(steam). Liquid water is at its most dense at 2 oC. Water on freezing to ice expands by about 10% of its volume. This is because of the lattice arrangement of water molecules in ice., which does not occur in liquid water., Hence ice floats on water. (icebergs).
Sea water is more dense than fresh water because it contains dissolved salts, minerals, and other substances that increase its mass without significantly increasing its volume. This increased mass causes sea water to be more dense than fresh water, which has a lower concentration of dissolved substances.
Less dense. For most substances, the solid form is more dense than the liquid form; water is a notable exception.Less dense.

No, ice water is more dense than liquid water. This is because the molecules in ice water are arranged in a more structured way, leading to a higher density compared to the more random arrangement of molecules in liquid water.
All else being equal cold water is more dense than warmer water. The Arctic Ocean, being colder, would be more dense.
More dense than water. Maybe 1.5 with 1 being H2O.
Anything that sinks in water is more dense than water.
more dense
I would be thinking the salt is the reason. The salt makes the water more dense, so things that were more dense as compared to the water before become less dense as compared to seawater. So yeah, that's why things are more buoyant in seawater.
Water is more dense.
More Dense.
no, oil is not more dense than water
Water is 784 times more dense than water.
Earth is more dense.
Ice water is more dense than warm water.
Cold water is more dense.
