Stays the same (assuming that all the ice was floating to begin with).

Beverage glass is filled to the brim with ice cold water 0C and ice cubes Some of the ice cubes are floating above the water level When the ice melts the water in the glass will?
When all the ice melts (it will take a while with the water at 0C), the water level in the glass will not be in any danger of overflowing the container because water is one of those rare liquids that expands when it freezes. (This is why a closed glass container of water put into a freezer will break.) This means that it contracts as it melts.The specific water level of the glass will depend on how much ice was floating above the water level, but it won't be in any danger of overflowing. As a matter of fact, the water level will actually be lower than the rim of the glass.
What happens to a glass jar lid if you run it under hot water?
It melts and brakes all over the place.
How come rubber and glass don't melt?
Glass melts all the time.
Why don't floating ice cubes raise the water level when they melt?
cause whhen ice melts it turns to water that all i should have to say **The previous answer is nonsense. If the dough (or whatever other material you wish to use) is floating in a full cup of water with ice, as the ice melts the level of the cup WILL NOT RISE. Simple physics, ice is less dense than water. Density is equal to mass divided by volume or Density = Mass/Volume Therefore, differentiating between equal masses of water and ice, the melted ice will have LESS volume than the equal (mass) amount of water in the glass thereby having no effect on the overall volume of water in the glass..... to paraphrase the first answer-er ... 'duh'
What happens to the sea level if all the sea ice melts?
Since sea ice is already located within the ocean, sea level will not change if it melts.
When ice melts what does it leave behind?
When the ice caps melt, it leaves water behind. If all the of the icecaps melt, it will rise the ocean level 20ft.
Why do rivers flood so much?
Rivers flood so much as snow melts on the water, dams burst and heavy rain. All these can cause the water level to rise and causes lots of flooding.
A piece of cork is embedded inside an ice block which floats in water if what will happen to the level of water when all the ice melts?
well the answer is it remains same although i dont know the reason so i learnt it as a fact
What is the effect of breakage of of glass tube of water level indicator?
Having the glass tube breaking all the time effects production and creates loss time for the any production unit.

Is water in a tilted glass always level?
Yes. It is true that water in a glass is always level relative to the ground (I mean horizontal). This is because the pull of gravity is equal across the face of the water. The water molecules are free to move throughout the liquid, and the gravity affects each water molecule equally, pulling them all down to the same level.
What happens to the sea level of the ocean if all the ice melts?
If all the floating ice (sea ice, icebergs etc) melts it will not change sea levels.If all the land ice melts (Antarctica, Greenland, Alaska, all other glaciers) sea levels will rise about 70 metres (229 feet).
