side navbar when position is "Fixed"

I have a side nav bar and I have set the float to be right and then when I put the position: fixed; it floated to left why did this happen? can anyone help me?

this is my html:

<div id="navbar">
 <ul>
 <li><a href="default.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-pagelines fa-2x"></i></a></li>
 <li><a href="news.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-smile-o fa-2x"></i></a></li>
 <li><a href="contact.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-envelope-o fa-2x"></i></a></li>
<li><a href="about.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-home fa-2x"></i></a></li>
 <li><a href="default.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-plus-square fa-2x"></i></a></li>
 <li><a href="news.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-bell-o fa-2x"></i></a></li>
 <li><a href="contact.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-cog fa-2x"></i></a></li>
 <li><a href="about.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-clock-o fa-2x"></i></a></li>
 <li><a href="about.asp">&nbsp; &nbsp;<i class="fa fa-power-off fa-2x"></i></a></li>
</ul>
</div>

And this is my css:

#navbar{
position:fixed;


}
    ul {
    list-style-type: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    height:auto;
    width: 70px;
  background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1);
    float:right;
}


li a {
    display: block;
    color: #ffffff;
    padding: 22.2px 10px;
    text-decoration: none;
     -webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease;
  transition: all 0.5s ease;
  -webkit-appearance: none;
}

li a:hover,li a:focus {
    background-color:#28a828;
    color: green;

}

Thank you :)
