well they would have the same mass if the water is freezing into the ice. ice is less dense though

properly they have an same mass yet diverse densities as they reported above even with the undeniable fact that the trick right it really is: at the same time as water is frozen we are getting a sturdy , now once you seem to the ice structure( microscopic scale) you'll see alot of empty cavities between a million molecule of water and yet another as a results of hydrogen bond that molecules of water might want to do at the same time. now as you spot there is an increasing in areas because the water molecules are far faraway from one yet another, which make the quantity of ice higher and which make it a lot less dense too . i desire that what I reported above make experience , because i won't be able to clarify more desirable helpful ( undesirable english )

Mass does not changae. A mass of water frozen will have the same mass. However, it will float, because the volume has expanded and the density is less than the same volume of water.

It's the same. In general, mass remains constant (yes, I know about nuclear reactions and this is the exception). So, if you have a pound of water, then after freezing, you'll have a pound of ice.

If you really mean density, then ice is less dense than water. Hence, it floats.

Air in ice causes a given quantity of water to expand.
That air is what causes frozen water (ice) to float. But
lay this one on your teacher: Since that is air throughout the ice the mass of the water is still the same as it was before freezing,only the scope, the range having expanded. n'est ce pas?
On second thought - forget that..

if all you're doing is freezing a given amount of water, then the mass does not change; the density changes (ice is less dense than water)

Once the matter has changed from a liquid to a solid, the mass is constricted. The density is also changed, making the solid denser than the liquid.

when water freezes, it gains 1/11 in volume, and i am not sure if it gains mass, i do believe it has the same mass

Same mass. Same weight if both are on Earth. Different (smaller) volume) and different (higher) density.

ice can be more dense or less dense, at some points more less in volume but look equal. ex. take 2 glasses of water one full one half full, freeze the half full one and it will come out looking full, less dense and also less in volume, that's why you can consume more in ice than in liquid form
