When water a 4 degrees C is heated it expands When water at 4 degrees C is cooled it?

Contracts.


Do any matter expand when cooled and contract when heated?

Sort of. In the temperature range of 0-4 Degrees Celsius water contracts when heated and expands when cooled. Outside of this temperature range it behaves normally.

Does water contract or expand when it is cooled?

When liquid water is cooled, it contracts like one would expect until a temperature of approximately 4 degrees Celsius is reached. After that, it expands slightly until it reaches the freezing point, and then when it freezes it expands by approximately 9%

What contracts when heated?

Almost everything expands when heated. There are a very few substances that contract when heated under certain conditions... water, for example, contracts very slightly when it is headed from 0 degrees to 4 degrees Celsius.


Why does water expand on heating?

water expands on heating and contracts on cooling because when water is heated the molecules are closely packed and they overflow but when cooled they are loosely packed therefore they dont overflow. it is as simple as that.


Do liquids expands when heated?

Only one liquid expands when heated and thats water the most common liquid.


What is waters reaction to heat?

Water has three states Solid (ice) liquid (water) gas (steam) When water is heated it expands and when it is cooled it contracts until about 4 degrees Celsius when it begins to expand again. So the answer to your question is it depends on what temperature the water is. If it is a liquid and over 4 degrees then it will expand. If it is not frozen but somewhere between 0 and 4 degrees it will contract until about 4 degrees and then expand. Under 0 degrees it is ice not water, over 100 degrees it is steam not water.


What liquid expands when heated?

All liquids expand when heated. e.g. Mercury in a thermometer. One exception may be water when heated form 0 to 4 degrees Celsius.


What is the mass of water at 25 degrees Celsius if the volume of water is unknown?

Question makes no sense - unanswerable. Nothing changes mass when heated or cooled.


Is room temperature water less dense than hot water?

Yes. Hot water expands a little, so that the same mass takes up more room; Therefore, the density decreased. It's generally true that things expand when heated and contract when cooled. For water, this is true for temperatures about 4 degrees Celsius/39 degrees F. When going below 4C/39F, water begins to form a crystalline structure as it freezes, and expands by about 15% to become ice.
