It is not. It varies slightly. The volume of ice will be larger than with water when water and ice are the same weight.

When a block of ice floating on water in a container melts what happens to the volume of water in the container it increases or decreases?

Strictly speaking, the volume of water will increase. For example, if you have a 200 gram chunk of ice floating in 1000 ml of water, the volume of the water itself is 1000 ml. When the ice melts, the volume of water will be 1200 ml. However, if you're asking whether the water level in the container will go up or down, the answer is "neither." The ice displaces an amount of water equal to the mass of the ice. When the ice melts, the mass does not chance, so the amount of the original water displaced by the melted ice does not change. Hence, the water level will remain the same.


Why does melting ice require much less energy than boiling the same mass of water?

Because Water's latent heat of fusion is much less than its latent heat of vaporization. In English: It takes less energy to change a gram of ice at 0°C into a gram of water at the same temperature than it takes to change a gram of water at 100°C into a gram of steam at the same temperature.


Will there be more ice or water from one ice cube?

If you freeze a given quantity of water, the volume increases. When it melts, the volume decreases. The number of molecules remains the same.


Which is greater if the same volume of water is transform into ice or it remain liquid?

The Ice will have a greater volume than the liquid water it is made form. This is because Ice is less dense than water (- we can see this because ice floats), a very unusual property of water.


When ice melts will the liquid water occupy more or less volume than the ice?

The liquid has the same mass but less volume than the ice.


Does one gallon of water weigh more if it is frozen?

yes because the size of the molecules change therefore so does the weightCounterpoint:No, a gallon of water would weigh the same if it were frozen into a "gallon" of ice. The molecules do not change size, they simply do not move as fast and stick together when they are frozen. Therefore nothing is added or subtracted at a molecular level, and the weight of a liquid is the same whether it is frozen or solid.Water has a density of 1.00 gram/cubic centimeter.Ice, on the other hand, has a density of 0.931 gram/cubic centimeter.(As the volume is equal, and mass = density x volume)[Water will be heavier.]


Why does ice stay over the liquid water on ponds and lakes?

When water is frozen, it expands, so ice has a greater volume than water. Also, since density is the volume of an object divided by its mass, and since ice has the same mass


What causes ice to float in liquid water?

When water is frozen, it expands, so ice has a greater volume than water. Also, since density is the volume of an object divided by its mass, and since ice has the same mass as water, the density of ice is slightly less than water, causing it to float on water.


How much does a gram of ice weigh?

slightly less than 1 kg per liter.At 0 degrees Celsius water when freezing expands to 9.05 % greater volume than it's original volume at 0 degrees Celsius.The density of ice is .917 kg/l. (that is clear ice with no gas[air] inclusion).


Describe how liquid water and ice affects rocks?

When water is frozen, it expands, so ice has a greater volume than water. Also, since density is the volume of an object divided by its mass, and since ice has the same mass as water, the density of ice is slightly less than water, causing it to float on water.


If you melt an ice cube will the volume be the same?

Nope, you lose about 9% of volume when ice melts. That's because when you freeze water, it expands. It loses volume if you do it the other way around.


Can the volume of ice smaller than the water's?

No, the volume of ice cannot be smaller than the water.
