What else can I help you with?
Is water and ice same?
Water and ice are not the same. Water is a liquid state of H2O molecules, while ice is the solid state of those same molecules. At temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius, water freezes and turns into ice.
Does atoms make up ice?
Ice is made of molecules of water. Molecules of water are made of atoms of hydrogen and oxygen. So yes, ice is made of atoms, too.
Water and ice are made of the same kind of what?
Water and ice are different states of the same substance (the compound H2O), so they are made of the same kind of molecules. The physical state varies with temperature and pressure, where water may be any of several forms of ice (solid), or a liquid, or a gas (water vapor).
Why do ice floats in water in fact ice is made up of water and the fact that they have the same density?
You are correct, Ice and water have the same composition but the do not have the same DENSITY.When water freezes to form ice, the spacing of the water molecules held rigidly in the ice crystal is actually further apart than the molecules are when they in the liquid state. Water therefore EXPANDS on freezing (which is why frozen pipes burst) and the ice crystals are therefore less dense than the liquid water.
How will you justify that ice and water and steam are different states of water?
Ice, water, and steam are different states of water because they have different molecular arrangements and levels of energy. In ice, water molecules are in a rigid and ordered structure. In water, molecules are more loosely packed and able to flow. In steam, molecules have high energy and are moving freely as a gas.
What is the same between a molecule of ice to a molecule of liquid water?
Both molecules are made up of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen, referring to its atoms.
It takes water molecules to fill up the same space if the molecules are in the form of ice as compared to liquid water?
No, it takes the same number of water molecules to fill up a certain space whether they are in the form of ice or liquid water. In ice, the water molecules are just held in a more structured arrangement compared to the more freely moving molecules in liquid water.
When water turns to ice are new molecules formed?
The molecules in water are not tightly packed as such flow and spread very easily but when the water turns to ice the molecules in the liquid enlarge ans they tightly packed and thus, when water turns to ice new molecules are not formed.
An ice crystal is made of how many water molecules?
zero.
Do molecules of ice have less mass than the molecules of water?
Mass is just "the amount of stuff there is". We can measure it in kg. If I have 4kg ice and 4kg water, then the answer is "no", but I could just as easily have 4kg of ice and 5kg water, in which case the answer is "yes". If you mean "does freezing water make it heavier?", then the answer is no - 4kg water makes 4kg ice, and they will weigh the same. However, ice has a greater volume than water*, so freezing water will make it expand. *This is not true for every liquid/solid combo.
How does ice melt at 0 degrees and water freeze at the same temperature?
ice melt at 0 degrees and water freeze at the same temperature because it cool like that. xDThe real answer is because molecules of ice are constantly escaping into the water (melting), and molecules of water are being captured on the surface of the ice (freezing).
Is water or ice more dense?
Ice is less dense than water because its molecules are arranged in a crystalline lattice structure, which causes it to take up more space compared to the same amount of water molecules in liquid form. This is why ice floats on water.
