How will the mass of the water be affected when the waterfreezes?
There is no effect of freezing on the mass of water when it freezes. The thing which is affected by freezing is its volume and hence, it's density.
Does density affect the evaporation of water?
The density of ultrapure water is not affected.
What happened to the density of water near freezing point?
i get less they when i did you mum
What factors can effect the density of water?
I assume you mean "affect". Water density can be affected by impurities. Assuming the water is pure, it can be affected by temperature, pressure, and isotopic composition.
What is the density of water affected by?
Temperature and Salinity
When water is warmed from its freezing temperature to its temperature of maximum density it?
expands
In Which state does water have the most density?
Liquid state, nearest to freezing.
What has a effect on water density?
Density of a liquid is indirectly proportional to the temperature. When the temperature raises, the density of the liquid decreases. Therefor the temperature has an effect on water density.
What is so special about salt water?
The density, freezing point etc. are different compared with pure water.
Why does ice float and what is the significance of this?
This means that the density of ice is lower than that of water. Its significance is that the density of ice decreases when water undergoes freezing. As density is equal to mass per unit volume, thus this means that there is an increase in volume due to expansion during the freezing process.
What two factors affect ocean salinity?
Freezing point (more salt the lower the freezing point). Density (more salt, the heavier the water).
Is it true that e freezing point of water can be lowered with the addition of salt?
I don't know how much it is affected, by yes it is affected. I would say insignificantly though.
