Ice floats above water, as it has lesser density than that of water. Due to anomalous expansion of water, the ice (solid) has more density than water(liquid). Hence, it floats above water.
Under normal circumstances, ice does float in water because it is less dense.
Ice is expanded water, so is less dense that the water it floats in. Being less dense, and so lighter, the ice will float on water with at least one third (approximately) above the surface
yes, ice does float in water. it will eventually melt and change into water.
Ice float on water because the density is lower.
They float, as ice is less dense than water.
Icebergs are formed when chunks of ice break off from glaciers or ice shelves and float in the water. Due to the difference in density between ice and water, only about 10% of an iceberg is visible above the water, with the rest below the surface. This visible portion is what we see "over the water."
Ice is less dense than water and will float on water.
I think that salty ice cube do float in water because ice bergs float it water and they're made of salty water. i think i depends on the density (Amount of salt) in the ice
Water floats when it is in the solid phase, called ice. Ice floats because the density of ice is less than the density of water.
No, ice does not sink under a cup. Ice typically floats in liquids because it is less dense than the liquid it is in, such as water. So when you place ice in a cup of water, it will float on the surface rather than sink.
Water,thats why ice float on water.
The ice cube will float higher in sea water than it will in pure water (more of it will be above the water level). This is because the salt in sea water makes it more dense than pure water, meaning that less water must be displaced to account for the mass of the ice.
