Obviously I know ice is just solid water but would ice be heavier than the same volume of water if you account for the expansion of water as it freezes?
I’m only curious because I know that as water freezes it traps air molecules inside its crystalline structure so I was wondering if it trapped enough to cause a distinguishable difference in weight between the two states.


Ice is less dense then water due to extensive hydrogen bonding, lattice of hydrogen bonds form when water freezes. Chemistry!
