What most accurately explains whether liquid water or ice has a higher density, and why?
A) Ice has a higher density. Substances are always denser as solids than they are as liquids because the particles of solids have less energy to move and crowd closer together.
B) Liquid water has a higher density. Substances are always denser as liquids than they are as solids because the vibrations of solid particles create larger gaps between them.
C) Liquid water has a higher density. Ice crystals have an open hexagonal structure with some empty space in the middle, while liquid water does not.
D) Ice has a higher density. Solid ice has strong hydrogen bonds that hold the particles closer together, while liquid water does not form hydrogen bonds.
