What happens to the volume of water when it freezes?
Water is unique. It expands in volume when heated, and also expands in volume when frozen (hence, burst water pipes (unless insulated) when there is a thaw after freezing winter weather).
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 the volume of water increase when you add a solid?
The water level of the container will rise, and the total volume increases. But the volume of the water itself remains the same.
Is it true When water freezes it expands?
Yes
True or false water contracts when it freezes causing frost wedging?
False, water expands when it freezes.
What happens to volume of water when it freezes?
it remain the same as it has definite volume.

Water expands as it freezes can you define a coefficient of volume expansion for the freezing force?
The coefficient of the thermal expansion of water is equal to .00021. Water expands by 9% of its volume when it freezes.
When water freezes its volume?
Increases by about 9%. Water is one of the few liquids that expands when it freezes.
Does the volume of water increase a lot when it frezzes or a little?
i know that when water freezes it expands and its volume gets larger but i am not sure how much.

Does water expand?
When it freezes.
What expands as it freezes?
Water

Which volume is more ice and water?
When water freezes, it expands by about 15%, becoming less dense and taking up more volume. That's why ice floats.
Which liquid expands when it freezes?
Water
Why do water pipes burst when water running through freezes?
Because when the water freezes it expands.
