molecules are less agitated and therefore more densely packed together

When cold water sinks where does it go?

Water is most dense at 4° C and so because water at cold temperatures has a greater mass per volume it will sink below warmer water.


Which has greater volume warm air or cool air?

cold


Why is it important to maximize the surface area to volume ratio?

It is not always the case. If you are out in the cold with insufficient clothing, the important thing - to prevent hypothermia - is to MINIMISE the surface to volume ratio.

How does cold air effect the density of gas?

'Cold' air will have less volume so the density is greater.


Why does cold water have less volume than cold water?

Cold water has a higher density than warm water, which causes it to have less volume for the same mass. This is because the molecules are closer together in cold water, making it more compact.


What is the difference if any of volume to mass ratio of warm and cold water?

The volume to mass ratio you speak of is usually called density, "density = mass / volume"The density of water does change a little bit depending on the temperature. According to Wikipedia, the density decreases as temperature increases, meaning that the same mass of water takes up less space at a higher temperature. Check out the details and values on Wikipedia for more information.


Why does cold air have a greater volume than hot air?

It does not so there can be no answer to your question.


What does hot water have that cold water does not have?

Hot water is less denser than cold water and has a greater temperature.


What does cold water have that hot water does not have?

Hot water is less denser than cold water and has a greater temperature.


What has more volume hot or cold water?

I hate questions like this one. Do you know why? Because I fear that the TEACHERS asking the question of their students are either IGNORANT of the subject matter they are supposed to be teaching or are asking a TRICK question of their students, which is almost always intellectually dishonest. Hopefully, it's just a poorly worded question by the poster of the question. Okay, I'll shut up and answer the question. A quantity of cold air can occupy a greater volume of hot air -- if there is more cold air than hot air!!!! If you've got two liters of cold air, that's a greater volume than one liter of hot air!!!!!! But what if you've got 0.1 kilogram of hot air and 0.1 kilogram of cold air? You've got the same amount of matter, right? They have the same mass: 0.1 kg. Will the hot and cold air occupy the same volume? NO!!! The hot air is less dense, which means it occupies MORE volume per unit mass than the cold air. So, if you have equal masses of hot and cold air, the hot air will have greater volume.


Is the density of warm water greater than cold water?

Yes, cold water is dencer indeed
