What are some unusual properties of water?
when water freezes, it expands. Most elements contract when frozen.
Why is it unusual when water freezes and it takes up more room?
When water freezes, its molecules arrange themselves into a crystalline structure which spaces them out more than when they were in the liquid state. This increased spacing causes the volume of ice to be slightly larger than the volume of the same amount of water.
Why does water expand by 10 percent when it freezes?
Its very unusual for a substance to expand when it freezes, water is just odd that way. Its just a property of water, its moleucles expand in the area they take up and take up more space.
What is unusual about the behavior of water when it freezes?
It actually expands, instead of contracts, for a few degrees below the freezing point.
Why does a cold bottle of water freeze when it is hit sharply against a counter?
Water is an unusual liquid in that it expands as it freezes. This can cause it to break a glass container as the water content freezes.
Does water expand?
When it freezes.
How the unusual properties of water make it possible for life to exisst in the cold freezing temperatures of the arctic poles?
Water is unusual because it expands as it freezes and ice is less dense then water. This allows ice to float on water. This makes life on this planet possible because water freezes from the top of a lake down and not the other way around. This means that water life can survive in the winter. Also, because ice floats and doesn't sink, the land isn't flooded by the displaced water.
Water does this when it freezes?
It floats when it freezes.
What freezes the fastest?
Cold water freezes faster then warm water.
At what temature does water freezes?
water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius.
Why is that ocean water freezes?
the reason salt water freezes is because of the amount of salt in the water
Why do water pipes burst when water running through freezes?
Because when the water freezes it expands.
