Do pieces of ice float in salt water?

I think that salty ice cube do float in water because ice bergs float it water and they're made of salty water. i think i depends on the density (Amount of salt) in the ice

Yes, icebergs are fresh water.

ice floats on salty water because it is less dense than the salt water

Ice is less dense, so it will float and the salt in the ocean water will also help it float

The reason why ice will float in water is because ice is not as dense as water, therefore, it floats.

Because some ice has more salt in it than other bits of ice so the ice with the most salt would float better.

An iceberg is made of fresh water ice. Although they float in the sea, they were formed by snow falling on land or on ice. Pieces break off and float out to sea.

yes, ice does float in water. it will eventually melt and change into water.

Ice cubes do float on water.

Ice float on water because the density is lower.

no but they do in salt

Yes ice will float in cold water or any water for the matter. For example icebergs are in fridge cold water (for the ocean can be extremely cold because of the salt and thus takes a colder temperature to freeze) and this still are afloat. Ice will actually float in warm or hot water for a bit until it is dissolved. So yes it can float in any sort of water despite the temperature.

The reason why ice will float on the surface of water is because ice has less density than water.

Of course. Fresh water floats on salt water, warmer water floats on cooler water, and ice floats on any water.

They float, as ice is less dense than water.

Ice is less dense than water, so ice will float.

Ice is less dense than water and will float on water.

a) Fresh water has a lower density than salt water b) Ice has a lower density than water Both contribute to the buoyancy of icebergs.

Salt melts ice because the salt molecules in the salt water changes the water molecules in the ice.

density of ice float is less than water and more than Ethanol.

Water floats when it is in the solid phase, called ice. Ice floats because the density of ice is less than the density of water.

The ice cube will float higher in sea water than it will in pure water (more of it will be above the water level). This is because the salt in sea water makes it more dense than pure water, meaning that less water must be displaced to account for the mass of the ice.

Water,thats why ice float on water.

Salt water: because salt lowers the freezing point of water, less water will freeze onto the ice cube, while the same amount of ice will dissolve into the water. This means that overall, the salt water will thaw it quicker. we recantly did a experiment in science class where there was a bucket of salt water and a bucket of fresh water (same temperatures) and in each bucket was an ice cube the ice cube in the fresh water melted faster because in salt water there are more perservatives and has more minerals therefore it is more dense and the ice will float closer to the top while the ice cube in the fresh water floats more lower. but i could be wrong

ice is less dencity then water
