Yes, ice is less dense than liquid water, regardless of its temperature. Dry ice will sink.

The density of warm water is less than that of cold water true or false?

True... warm water is less dense than cold water.


Which type of water is more dense cold salty water or warm less salty water?

Water is more dense the colder it becomes. It is also more dense the saltier it becomes.


Why does warm water stay on top of cold water?

Warm water tends to stay on top of cold water because it is less dense. When water is heated, the molecules move farther apart, making warm water less dense than cold water. This difference in density causes warm water to float on top of cold water.


Why does warm water sit on top of cold water?

Warm water is less dense than cold water, so it sits on top of the cold water. This is because warm water molecules are more spread out and have less mass per unit volume compared to cold water molecules, causing warm water to be less dense and float on top of the denser cold water.


Is cold water more or less dense than warm water?

What is less dense warm air or cold air?

Warm air is less dense (lighter) than cold air..that is why warm air rises and cold air settles


Is warm air less dense than cold air and moist air is more dense than dry air?

Warm air is less dense then cold air. But moist air is actually less dense than dry air because water vapor has a lower molecular weight than the oxygen and nitrogen that make up most of the atmosphere.


Is room temperature water less dense than cold water?

Yes, generally speaking, room temperature water is less dense than cold water. As water cools, it contracts and becomes denser, which is why cold water is often heavier than warm water.


What is more dense cold water or warm?

cold ocean water is more dense than warm water


Where cool dense water sinks does it become more dense?

When cool dense water sinks, it becomes more dense because the cooler temperature causes the water molecules to contract and become more tightly packed together. This increased density allows the water to sink below warmer, less dense water layers.


Do ships float higher or lower in tropical waters?

higher Because... temperature affects the level as warm water provides less bouyancy, being less dense than cold water. The salinity of water also affects the level, fresh water being less dense than salty water
