Answer:

For #2, water expands when it freezes, therefore it floats!

Step-by-step explanation:

Water first condenses when it freezes until it reaches about 4 degrees Celsius, where it then slowly expands by about 9%. It also floats! You can observe this yourself by placing ice into a glass full of water.

Ice floats because it is less dense than the water below.
