Solution

The correct option is A false, true
Statement I: Ice is less denser than water in the liquid phase. Due to this, ice floats on water.
Statement II: In water, hydrogen bonds can form between the positively charged H atom on one water molecule and the slightly negatively charged O atom on a nearby water molecule
Hence, the statement I is false and the statement II is true.
