The water in ice has a larger volume that water in its liquid form. That is why Ice floats. Ice is less dense than liquid water.
In general: expanding while melting; except for ice to liquid water, this volume is shrinking!
Volume increases, and there is a change of phase from liquid to solid.
It is different because, liquid water can (and will) take the form of the container it is in. We can also change the form of liquid water, unlike solid ice. Solid Ice wont take the form of the container it is in and we cant change its form without breaking it.
When water freezes it changes from a liquid to a solid. When water boils or evaporates it changes from a liquid to a gas.
What type of change occurs when water changes from a solid to a liquid
These are the three common states of matter. A liquid has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container, a solid has both definite shape and volume, and a gas has neither definite shape nor volume.
To measure the volume of a large irregular solid, you can use the water displacement method. Fill a container with a known volume of water, then submerge the irregular solid in the water and measure the change in water level. The difference in water level will indicate the volume of the irregular solid.
Yes you can.You can measure the solid by putting it into a gradruated cylinder.The height of the water shows you how much volume the solid has. fun is at www.qyue.webs.com
Water increases in volume as water expends on freezing.
volume increses,
take some ice (a solid) and melt it into water (a liquid)
In the case of water (liquid) you would freeze it into ice (solid).
