Ice is a solid form of water. It is created when water reaches a temperature of 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) or below and freezes. The molecules in water slow down and form a crystalline structure, resulting in the formation of ice.
Ice is less dense than liquid water, which is why it floats on the surface of water bodies. It also has a unique hexagonal crystal structure, which gives it its characteristic shape and hardness.
Ice has various uses in daily life and industry. It is used for cooling and preserving food, as well as in the production of ice sculptures and in recreational activities such as ice skating and ice hockey.
