<p>So, I’m just wondering. </p>

<p>Is there any **compound<a href=“other%20than%20water”>/B</a> whose solid floats in (and is therefore less dense than) its liquid?</p>

<p>I know of a couple of elements - Gallium, Bismuth, Plutonium who show this kind of behavior, but not of any compounds (except water).</p>

<p>Anyone who can answer this question (correctly) gets a Brazilian chocolate - (my uncle just came back from a week in Brazil and brought me some). :)</p>

<p>Thanks for replying so fervently! :slight_smile:
But if you come across a more reliable source, I’d appreciate it if you shared that.</p>
