Answer:
The water molecules in ice are considerably far apart as compared to cold water of 4 degrees centigrade and below. This, therefore, makes ice less dense than water at these temperatures (because they are fewer water molecules in ice per unit volume). This is why ice floats on cold water below 4 degrees centigrade. Ice, being a bad conductor of heat, shields the water below an ice sheet from excessive heat loss to the atmosphere. This is why water remains liquid below an ice sheet protecting the marine life below from complete freezing.
The outer core of the earth is the only part of the earth that is made up of liquid.
<h3>What is the earth core?</h3>
The earth core is the center part of the earth that is the main source of generation of the earth's magnetic field.
There are different layers of the earth core which includes the outer layer.
The outer layer of the earth is 70 kilometres (3.1–43.5 mi) in depth.
This outer layer is the third layer of the earth and is made up of liquid.
