A. True

Ice is less dense than water, which is why it floats on water. This is due to the unique structure of water molecules in the solid state (ice) compared to the liquid state (water). When water freezes into ice, the water molecules form a crystalline structure with a regular pattern, which results in an expansion of volume and a decrease in density. This lower density causes ice to be less dense than liquid water, which is why ice floats on water.
