Ice floats in water because
A. it has more mass and less volume than water
B. it has less mass and less volume than water
C. it has the same mass and greater volume than water
D. it has the same mass and less volume than water

Respuesta :

Answer:

C: It has the same mass and greater volume than water.

Explanation: When water freezes, it expands because of the shape of its molecule. It doesn't lose mass, but it does expand. This reduces the density of the ice to less than water's density, which allows it to float. Hope this helps!
