The Hydrogen and Oxygen are not solid as separate elements. They form a single solid compound which is Water or in this case, Ice.

Generally yes. Water is a rare exception. Every substance has it's own chart of when it is in which state, varying with temperature and pressure. There are certain trends, such as that generally at the same temperature, you need higher pressure to get a solid than a liquid. However, not everything follows this trend. Some substances, like carbon, have very weird charts with four different types of solids that form under different temperature and pressure conditions (graphite, diamonds, and coal, as well as the more exotic buckminster fullerine, or bucky balls for short, which is found in star dust). Water is exotic, but not that exotic. The line between liquid and solid goes the opposite direction from most, so at the same temperature, an object under more pressure is a liquid, not a solid. Hence the liquid is denser and ice floats.

No. There wont be any solid Oxygen and Solid Hydrogen separately.
Oxygen is O2 and Hydrogen is H2 when found in the atmosphere. but water is H2O. Ice is water in solid state. and the formula of ice is same as Water.

No the Oxygen and Hydrogen atoms don`t become solid. When water`s temperature drops the structure of the water molecules change. When it reaches the point of ice the molecules form a kinda of crystal structure because the molecules are so close together.

Oxygen and Hydrogen are both elements and they can only be liquefied.
HOH is a compound containing hydrogen and hydroxyl radical. It can occur in liquid (water), solid (ice), and gaseous (steam) state.

No, ice is solid H20. Much lower temperatures and higher pressures are required to achieve solid 02 and H2.

No, molecules are in motion even when the product seems solid. Depending on your question however, and the different ways of interpreting, you might actually say that everything is solid. This is if you believe that atoms are in fact solid.

There is no free O2 or H2 in ice or water. Even in its freezed state, i.e in ice, it is solid H2O, the crystallised form of water molecule which has greated volume than liquid water

as both chemicals are found in ice and ice is a solid it stands to reason that there is solid hydrogen and oxygen.

no actually the molecules are in motion.when water is changed to ice the intermolecular spaces and intermolecular forces are decreased and increased respectively .thus,it is not molecules turning into solid.
