It makes ice float on top of water instead of sink. It makes ice float on top of water instead of sink. It allows the water to evaporate as it freezes. It allows the water to evaporate as it freezes. It creates tight spaces between water molecules.

The correct response is: It makes ice float on top of water instead of sink.

This is due to hydrogen bonding, which causes water molecules to arrange themselves in a crystalline structure when they freeze, making ice less dense than liquid water.
