Why do water molecules cohere to form a liquid?
Water molecules are already in liquid form.
At what temperature does water expand?
when it is in the form of ice. When water freezes it expands. If a rock has a crack in it and water goes in the crack and freezes, it will expand and melt over and over. eventually it can split the rock.
WHICH ONE Will freeze first saltwater or sugarwater?
Fresh water will freeze first. This is because when water freezes the hydrogen bonds form a rigid structure (Ice). Salt and sugar molecules interfere with this formation.
What are the weak chemical attraction between water molecules?
Water molecules form hydrogen bonds to other water molecules.
What is the steam being given off when the water boils is it water molecules or hydrogen molecules?
Steam is water molecules in vapor form
When water freezes to form ice what connect the water molecules?
hydrogen bonds
Why do cracks in a rock get bigger if water freezes in them?
Frozen water molecules are larger and expand. In liquid form H2O is smaller
When liquid water freezes into ice it's molecules align to form what?
Ice is a material with crystalline structure.
What does water form when it freezes?
When it freezes, water becomes ice.ICE- A surface, layer, or mass of frozen water.
When liquid water freezes into ice it's molecules align to form?
Ice exist in a very great variety of crystals (hexagonal crystalline structure).
Why does liquid expand as it freezes?
Almost no liquids do that. Almost all become more dense when they freeze. Water is a startling exception. Water is one of the only known substances whose solid form floats in its liquid form. When water freezes, it forms crystals which occupy more space than its molecules would if they were packed together. That's because of the special shape of the water molecule, and the hydrogen bonds that it forms with other water molecules. The shape tends to form an open crystalline structure as the temperature drops below 4 degrees Celsius. By the time it freezes, it's about 9% less dense than water.
Which is denser liquid water or ice answer?
liquid water because as water freezes it creates crystallized forms of its molecules expanding the area it takes up, which is why ice floats because it is less dense then the liquid form
In what way does water freeze?
Water freezes when there isn't enough heat available to separate hydrogen-hydrogen bonds between the molecules. When hydrogen bonds persist, the molecules form into a solid crystal lattice, which is ice. Although water may be cooled down to 32°F / 0° C, additional energy called the "heat of fusion" must be removed from the molecules for ice to form.

Where can glacires form?
threw salt and water and when it freezes it expands.
