Liquid water is most dense at 4 oC, with a density of 1.00g/cm3. Water at higher or lower temperatures is less dense. Ice is less dense than water at 4 oC, also.

How does the density of the water change as a function of temperature?

It's at its most dense at 4 degrees Celsius. Below that it becomes less dense until it freezes and above 4 degrees Celsius it also gets progressively less dense (due to its expansion).


When is h20 most dense?

ANSWER At 4 degrees Celsius. This is the temperature at which specific gravity is defined. Note that ice floats because it is less dense than the water it is in. Water is the only substance known which is less dense as a solid than as a liquid.


Is water more dense at 100 degrees Celsius?

More dense than what? I presume you mean is it more dense at that temperature than at lower temperatures. The answer is no, it gets denser at lower temperatures, all the way down to 4 degrees centigrade. Then it gets less dense again.


How does the density of water change as a function of temperature?

Water is most dense at +4 deg centigrade. When it freezes it becomes lighter.


Water becomes a soild a what degrees celsius?

At Zero degree Celsius.(or less)


Why does water expands at 4 degree celsius?

Water has curious thermal properties. It contracts (gets denser) as it cools down just like other materials. However, at 4 degrees Celsius, it reaches the maximum density of 1 and then starts expanding if it is further cooled. Ice formed at zero degree Celsius is actually less dense than water and floats on it.


Is ice water more dense than liquid water?

Water is most dense at +4 Celsius. This is why lakes do not freeze to the bottom at winter. Solid ice is less dense than water.


Does tap water boil at 100 degrees celsius or less?

Yes, most water boils at 100 celsius.


What is most dense ice water or room temperature water?

when liquid water cools the molecules come closer together, water is most dense at 4 degrees Celsius and anything less there is vibrational movement and the hydrogen bonding are more rigid. at this point water expands as it freezes, meaning ice is more dense than water causing it to float.


When will water boil at a temperature less than 100 degrees Celsius?

Water can boil below 100 degrees Celsius depending on the area of the world. A lab was conducted in science class that our water boiled at 94.6 degrees Celsius. The average boiling point for water is 100 degrees Celsius but that does not mean it will always be that degree to boil.


A sample of water under study was found to boil at 102 degrees celsius at normal temperature and pressure is the water pure?

No. Pure water boils at 100 degrees Celsius or less.


Where does water boil at less than 100 degrees Celsius?

On top of a mountain
