When water is in a cold environment the particles tend to pack tightly and closely together. A way to understand is is if you are freezing cold your body will try to pack tightly together to receive warmth. So the answer to your question is the particles pack together to get warmth.

∙ 10y agowhen we put water in the freezer, at first it is in liquid state. as we all know 'substances expand on heating and contract on cooling', the water molecules contract on cooling and turn into solid state from liquid state

∙ 11y agoIn ice the water molecules are held in a crystal structure that keeps them farther apart than in the liquid state.

If you put water in a freezer and it turns to ice what kind of change occured to the water?
A chemical change occurred
What is the Sublimination?
Sublimation is when a solid turns into a gas... when water turns into ice it solidifies... when ice turns into water it melts... when ice turns into steam it is sublimation.
Are there chemicals in freezer ice?
No, there are no chemicals in freezer ice. Freezer ice is just frozen water, so it does not contain any additional chemicals.
When frost forms on the inside of the freezer a chemical or physical change?
It is a physical change. When the water vapour inside of the freezer turns to frost (ice), it hasnt changed the fact that it is still water, just in a different form. Therefore, this is a physical change.
What is regular ice?
regular ice is made up of from water that is in a freezer.
If you put water in a freezer and it turns to ice what kind of change occured to the water?
A chemical change occurred
is solidifying water reversible?
Water solidification means freezing, that is, it turns to ice after keeping it in the freezer for some time. But it can turn back to liquid water after being removed from the freezer. Therefore, freezing is an example of reversible change.
Why do some things become ice when put into the freezer?
Water is frozen to become ice.
Example of liquid to solid?
Water (liquid) placed in the freezer which is 32 degrees Fahrenheit or colder turns to ice (solid).
When ice cream is left out of a freezer the ice cream changes from a?
It turns to a solid from a liquid
What happens to water in a freezer?
Water becomes ice cubes in a freezer.
How does water change from a liquid to a soil?
water changes from a liquid to a solid if you make the temperature cold enough the water will freeze. Just think of ice when you first put it in the freezer. Then it magically turns into ice, a solid.
What is the Sublimination?
Sublimation is when a solid turns into a gas... when water turns into ice it solidifies... when ice turns into water it melts... when ice turns into steam it is sublimation.
Will plastic test test tubes break in the freezer?
They will, if filled with water to capacity and the closed at the top. That is because the water will expand when it turns to ice. But normally they will not break spontaneously.
What causes a freezer to leak water?
Its crying! Quick get some tissues! And Ice cream!
Are there chemicals in freezer ice?
No, there are no chemicals in freezer ice. Freezer ice is just frozen water, so it does not contain any additional chemicals.
How does a solutions form?
A liquid-solid solution is when a liquid turns to a solid. You can tell because if you put a glass of water in the freezer, it will turn to ice (solid).
