(D) The density of water is anomalous. As water is cooled from room temperature,its density increases until it reaches $4^{\circ}C$. At $4^{\circ}C$,water molecules are packed most closely together,resulting in maximum density. Below $4^{\circ}C$,the hydrogen bonding structure causes the water to expand,leading to a decrease in density. Therefore,water has maximum density at $4^{\circ}C$.
