Sand sinks in water, so it is more dense. Density = mass/volume. Or Volume = Mass/Density. For the same mass, more dense substance will take up less volume.

So the water takes up more space.

What form of water takes up the most space?

Water in its solid form, as ice, takes up the most space compared to its liquid form. When water freezes, it expands and becomes less dense, causing it to take up more volume.


When water has physical changes does the density change?

Yes, we now know that the density of ice is less than that of water. Ice takes up more space than water for a given weight. In fact the density of ice is 7.65 pounds/gallon compared to 8.35 pounds/gallon for water. Therefore, one gallon of ice weighs 7.65 pounds, but 7.65 pounds of water is only 7.65/8.35 = 0.92 gallons of water. Gas also changes but as the tempature changes so does the density.
