Compared to water, ice has a lower DENSITY, ehich allows it to float.
Answer: Density.
Explanation: The density of ice is less than the density of water this is the reason why the ice floats on water.
The orientation of the hydrogen bonds causes the molecules to be far apart which makes it lighter and this makes ice float on water.
This property of the ice helps the organisms to survive inside the water above which is ice floating.
