How deep does a pond have to be not to freeze solid?
This depends on your location. The colder it is in your environment, the more depth is needed. Usually in a typical New England town (where I'm from) a natural pond needs to be deeper than 2 feet to have 0 chance of freezing solid.
Why does a pond appear shallower than it really is?
Due to refraction. When light travels through a denser substance, it bends towards the normal, so things appear to be at a different angle, size or depth than they really are.
How many kilos is one pond?
It depends on the size of the Pond.
Ripples on a surface of a pond?
Ripples on the surface of a pond are an example of wave motion.
Is ice water more dense than liquid water?
Water is most dense at +4 Celsius. This is why lakes do not freeze to the bottom at winter. Solid ice is less dense than water.
What would happen to shallow pond that frozen in winter?
In extreme freezing conditions, a shallow pond may freeze down to the bottom. If the pond is at least 18 inches deep, the surface may freeze down to a couple of inches.
What will freeze first the ocean or pond?
The ocean, in a pond only the top layer will freeze!
Does water in a pond freeze on the sides of the pond or in the middle first?
It freezes first on the sides where the water is very shallow, thereby less able to circulate heat up from the bottom to keep from freezing.
Is a pond cold?
Fish generally go down to the bottom of the pond where the water does not freeze and sort of hibernate for the winter. That is why it is important to make your pond so deep that the water will not freeze all the way to the bottom. (www.rosepond.com)

What is at the bottom of a pond?
whats at the bottom of a pond is mostly plants, fish waste, and water snakes.
What would happen if cooling occurred at the bottom of a pond?
Cooling does occur at the bottom of a pond. Cold water generally sinks, but, crucially the density of water begins to fall at temperatures just above the freezing point, so that water about to freeze rises to the surface, where depending on the conditions it may finally freeze, or alternatively warm up. If it were not for of this fall in density just above the freezing point, ponds and seas would freeze from the bottom up and no heat would get to melt them, the oceans would be frozen solid apart from a shallow surface region, and life on earth would probably never have developed.
At what temperature will a pond of water freeze?
below 5 degrees
The ability of a pond to freeze over in winter is a?
chemical change
