Does water expand when frozen?

Asked by ressadelbazar5776

Answer (1)

Yes, water expands when frozen. This happens because when water freezes, its molecules arrange into a crystalline structure (ice) that is less dense than liquid water, causing it to take up more space. This is why ice floats on water.
