The ice displaces water. The water has to go somewhere, so it goes where it's able to, which is up.

What will happen if ice in kept in glass of water does the level of water will rise or not?

yes, becuse when ice melts it becoms water.Answer:When ice is added to a glass of water the level will rise. After that, as the ice melts the level will decline. When water freezes it expands, so when it thaws back to a liquid it shrinks.


A glass full of water contain ice cubes floating in it .What will happen to the water level when ice melts?

When the ice melts the water level will rise. The water level will increase because Ice is frozen water and when the ice melts, it turns to water, which means more water will be added to the glass.


How did the growth of glaciers affect water level in the oceans?

when glacier runs into the ocean it causes the water level to rise. just like when we add ice cubes to a glass of water. but when the icebergs melts water level remains the same. like when the ice cubes melt in a glass of water. it does not increase the amount of water in the glass. global warming is causing glaciers to run into the ocean causing water level to rise.


What happens to a glass filled half way with water and then ice cubes are added?

As the ice cubes are added to the glass, they displace the water that was already in the glass. The level of water in the glass will rise slightly due to the displacement caused by the ice cubes, but the total volume of water and ice combined will remain the same as before the ice cubes were added.

Does the water in a glass of icewater rise as the ice melts?

In physics terms, yes. Ice has a negative heat, which when added to water, the negative heat is then transferred into the water, cooling it off. Then the opposite becomes true as well. The heat of the water acts to melt the ice, then reach thermal equilibrium, which happens only when both the "ice" and the water are the same temperature.


What is the approximate temperature of a glass of water with ice in it?

The temperature of water with ice will be around 0°C (32°F) until all the ice melts, at which point the temperature will start to rise.


Which glass has the most water one half full of water or one half full of water and ice cubes?

Pick an answer: a) For both glasses, the water is about the same temperature, say just above 32F. Then the glass without ice has the most water by mass. b) The glass with only water is quite hot, say just below boiling. The glass with water and ice cubes is just about at 32F and the volume of ice is very small (less than 2%). The the glass with water and ice could have more water by mass. c) By definition, water refers to H2O in its solid form. By definition, ice refers to H2O in its solid form. So, "by definition", the half full glass with ice will always have less water by volume.


Is a glass of ice water a property or change?

A glass of ice water is an example of a physical change, where water changes from a liquid to a solid state as it freezes. This change is reversible, as the ice can melt back into water.


Would a glass of ice water nearly full of ice be cooler then a glass of ice water half full of ice?

The temperature will be the same.


How is a glass of water and a glass of ice similar?

they are both water


Will a glass of water filled to the brim with a cube of ice floating in it rise when ice melts?

The water level will decrease slightly when the ice cube melts, but the overall volume will remain constant. The melted ice will just fill the space that the ice cube previously occupied, so the glass will not overflow.
