Matter Explain why solid water floats on liquid water Asked by ASOH VINCENTEL 12 years ago 10/22/2013 1:39 AM Last updated by anonymous 12 years ago 10/23/2013 9:39 PM
Solid water floats on liquid water because when water is going through the freezing process the particles expand and spread out which makes the density of the solid water less than liquid water. Hence why solid water floats on liquid water.
