Question

Ice cubes float in glass of water because

A.) the colder ice is more dense
B.) the ice losing mass through the melting process
C.)liquid water is less dense than ic cubes
D.) the molecules of ice are arranged in an orderly way so that there is an unusually large amount of empty space in the ice cubes

Answer 1

the answer is D. and the reason is so obivious

Answer 2

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of ice is less that the density of water so the ice does not sinks in water and floats on water.

The molecules of ice are arrange in a proper orderly way because of this there is a lot of empty space in the ice cubes which makes it lighter and making its density low.

The substance having lighter weight will float on water and so does the ice. So, the correct answer is option D
