What is the difference if any of volume to mass ratio of warm and cold water?

The volume to mass ratio you speak of is usually called density, "density = mass / volume"
The density of water does change a little bit depending on the temperature. According to Wikipedia, the density decreases as temperature increases, meaning that the same mass of water takes up less space at a higher temperature. Check out the details and values on Wikipedia for more information.

Why does cold water have greater mass to volume ratio than hot water?
molecules are less agitated and therefore more densely packed together
Why is it important to maximize the surface area to volume ratio?
It is not always the case. If you are out in the cold with insufficient clothing, the important thing - to prevent hypothermia - is to MINIMISE the surface to volume ratio.
What is the volume of 35.7g of sodium chloride in 100cm3 of cold water?
What is the volume of 35.7g of sodium chloride in 100cm3 of cold water?
Would a jug of hot water or half a jug of hot water go cold quickist?
Half a jug as the surface area to volume ratio is reduced therefore heat can escape quicker from the surface
Why are hot liquids less dense than cold liquids?
Yes, hot water is less dense than cold water. This occurs because as the particles move faster when the water is heated, they begin to spread further apart. As a result, there is more space in between the particles, resulting in less density.
What is the difference between warm water and cold water?
temperature
When you swim why are your ears cold?
Perhaps because the high surface area to volume ratio that ears have. Because of this the heat loss from your ears to the water will occur at a higher rate than for other areas of your body.
How is water different from other substances when it gets cold?
When water freezes, it expands in volume; most liquids decrease in volume when they freeze.
Does cold water weigh less than hot water?
No, cold water weighs more (for a given volume) than hot water. This is why there is a thermocline in bodies of water. But when water freezes, the solid form weighs even less (for a given volume), this is why ice floats.
How much hot water and cold water do you bath the baby in babydowcom?
9 for the hot and 5 for the cold. but that answer doesn't have enough volume so what is it
What is the difference between making cookies with hot water than with cold water?
More particles can be dissolved in hot water then in cold.
Which produces boiling water faster warm water or cold water?
I recommend putting hot water in your kettle and timing it getting to the boil, and repeating with the same volume of cold water. Then have a think about why this happens.
