4° C is the temperature of maximum density for water. Change temperature in
either direction from there -- whether you warm it or cool it -- the density decreases.
Yes it contract and the expansion from 4 to 0 degrees is due to the crystallisation of water molecules.
As water cools from 20 degrees Celsius to 0 degrees Celsius, it transitions from liquid to solid at 0 degrees, forming ice. As the temperature continues to drop to -20 degrees Celsius, the ice remains solid and becomes more rigid and brittle. Throughout this range, water's density decreases, causing ice to float on liquid water at 0 degrees Celsius.
An increase in temperature causes thermal expansion which increases the volume. This cause a decrease in density. Except in the case of water between 0 and 4 degrees C, where increased temperature results in a contraction and so increased density.

Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit and 0 degrees Centigrade
The density of water increases as it cools from 4 degrees Celsius to 0 degrees Celsius. At 4 degrees Celsius, the density of water is 999.972 kg/m³, and at 0 degrees Celsius the density is 999.8395 kg/m³.
As water cools from 4 degrees Celsius to 0 degrees Celsius, its density decreases. This decrease in density is due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between water molecules, causing them to arrange in a more organized structure that takes up more space, decreasing the overall density of the water.
contracts. This is due to the unique properties of water, where its density decreases as it approaches its freezing point (0 degrees C). This behavior is responsible for why ice floats on water.
Heat moves from the water to its surroundings when water is cooled below 0 degrees Celsius. This causes the temperature of the water to decrease further until it reaches its freezing point, at which point it will freeze into ice.
super-cooled
No, water's density decreases as it cools. Water reaches its maximum density at around 4 degrees Celsius, and as it cools further, the water molecules form a crystalline structure, causing the density to decrease.
the density of water is mostly high when its at 4 degrees celsius so the answer would be that the density of the water decreases from 4 degrees celsius to 0 degrees celcius
Yes, water contracts when cooled from 4 degrees Celsius because it is in its densest state at that temperature. As it cools further, it expands until it reaches its freezing point, at which point it expands again and turns into ice.
Density of ice at 0 degrees Celsius is 916.8 grams per cubic centimeter or milliliter. The density of fresh water is dependant on the temperature: At 3.98 degrees Celsius the density is 0.999975 grams per milliliter. At 100 degrees Celsius the density is 0.958.35 grams per milliliter.
Density of ice=0.9167 g/cm cubed Density of water=1.0 g/cm cubed

It depends upon what it is, and how much it is at some other temperature. For water that has frozen and is 0 degrees C, the volume, whatever it is, is 91.7 percent of the volume at 20 degrees C (liquid water). Since ice is only about 92% the density of water, ice floats.
