Physics
Answer
When temperature increases, volume of most of the liquid increases, so density decreases. Similarly when temperature decreases volume of liquids decreases so density increases. But exception is water which contracts on heating from 0°C to 4°C and expands on heating above 4°C. Water has maximum density at 4 degree celsius.
