‘Unusual’ properties <strong>of</strong> water<br />

Water is unique in that it is the only natural substance<br />

that is found in all three states, liquid, solid (ice), and<br />

gas (steam) at the temperatures normally found on<br />

Earth.<br />

Water becomes less dense upon freezing.<br />

This results in an unusual phenomenon: water's solid form, ice,<br />

floats upon water, allowing organisms to survive inside a<br />

partially-frozen water body.<br />
