Step-by-step explanation:

If water is ice-form, only the gap between molecules reduces but the molecule remains the same. The gap between liquid water molecules is greater than that between the molecules. That's why ice is thinner than water.

The intermolecular gap now increases in the gaseous form, which makes it less heavier than solid ice and liquid water. However, the molecule still remain the same.
