Ice is simply frozen water. It is colourless and solid, but easily broken. Ice
floats on water and usually has some air in it. As water turns into ice it
expands. This can cause water pipes to crack. the cracks may not be noticed
until the ice melts and the water leaks out water freezes at a temperatures
of 0 degree.
