When an ice cube in a glass of water melts the water level in the glass?

The water level remains the same after the ice cube melts because the volume of the ice cube is already accounted for in the water level when it is frozen. When the ice melts, it simply changes state from solid to liquid without changing the overall volume in the glass.


Can an ice cube dissolve in water?

No. ICE is the solid form of WATER. Water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius and it becomes ice. The cube is just the shape of it, it's not important chemically.


Why does a ice cube melt in a glass of water?

The ice cube melts in a glass of water because heat is transferred from the surrounding water to the ice cube, causing the ice to absorb energy and increase in temperature, eventually melting into water. This process is known as heat transfer through conduction.


An ice cube that is dropped into a glass of water melts because?

the ice cube's temperature is higher than the surrounding water, causing heat transfer from the water to the ice cube. This heat transfer raises the ice cube's temperature, melting it into water until both reach thermal equilibrium.


What will happen to the water level when an ice cube in a glass of water melts?

The water level lowers. See the Related Question below for additional info.

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.


Does an ice cube in salt water dissolve slower than normal water?

yes it does desolves quickly


Does ice melt or disslove in a glass of water?

melt salt would dissolve


When ice cube floating in a tumbler of water melts completely why there is no overflow of water?

Its actually quite simple. The answer would be Anomalous expansion of Water, which means that the volume the Ice cubes are consuming in a glass filled upto the brim is more than water alone. When Ice melts and comes back into water form, it uses lesser volume (space) in the glass. Hence it does not allow the glass to overflow as the person pouring into the glass had poured in keeping into view the level of the ice (which uses more volume).
