because ice has less mass per unit volume as compared to water
Ice can't sink hunny :) It is less dense then water (density= 1.0) and therefore, it can only float, not ever sink.
Since the density of ice is less than that of water (1g/cm3), some of the ice will float. The amount of ice that will sink below the water depends on the volume of the ice and the density difference between ice and water. To calculate the immersed volume, you'd need to consider Archimedes' principle.
an ice cube cannot sink in water because its density is less than that of water. this is because of the air bubbles trapped inside; that make the ice cube less dense than water.
Ice generally floats in water.
Ice cubes don't sink in water, as the density of an ice cube is less than the density of water.
When you drop a block of ice in boiling water, heat from the water will transfer to the ice, causing the ice to melt. The heat will continue to transfer from the water to the ice until the ice completely melts and reaches the same temperature as the 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.
Ice floats and melts in your drink
it floats beacause there is water in it
Ice is less dense than water, so it floats.
They float, as ice is less dense than water.
Of course. Heavy water ice will sink in light water.
