Are icecaps liquid?
no they are ice, bur due to global warming are melting fast
If ice would sink what happen to earth?
oceans and lakes would freeze solid and all life inthe water would die.
Do glaciers sink?
Not a glacier, but an iceberg, which was drifting South from the Arctic regions after breaking off from the Polar ice-cap in the warmer Spring weather.
The temperature at which water condenses from a gaseous to a liquid form?
water start condencing to ice at 0 degree centrigate
What is the temperature at which a solid changes state into a liquid?
The condensation temperature is a characteristic of the gas that is different for ever gas or gas mixture. Atmospheric pressure and temperature differential also affects condensation temperature.
What liquid can ice sink on?
Diethyl ether..
Why does ice float in liquid A and sink in liquid B?
because liquid A is viscous then liquid B
Is ice less dense than warm water?
Yes, ice is less dense than liquid water, regardless of its temperature. Dry ice will sink.
When placed in water ice rises to the top of the liquid. Unlike most solids that sink when placed in their liquid forms ice floats because -?
There are microscopic bubbles of air trapped in the ice - making it lighter than the water.

How can you predict whether an object will sink or float in a liquid?
To predict whether an object will sink or float in a liquid, you must first examine the densities of both the object and the liquid. If the object is more dense than the liquid, it will sink. If the object is less dense than the liquid, it will float. For example, the density of water is approximately 1g/ cm3. The density of ice is approximately 0.92 g/ cm3. That is why when water freezes, the ice floats on the top rather than sinking to the bottom.
Why don't iceburgs sink?
Ice is less dense than liquid water, so it floats. This is the same reason why ice cubes float in a glass of water.
Why do you sink in water?
the water sink is not solid and liquid
Can an iceberg sink?
no. it melts An iceberg will float as long as it is in water. If you could put an iceberg in a liquid less dense than ice, the iceberg would sink.
Does ice float or sink?
ice cubes, iceburgs. do they float or sink and that might answer your question
Why does ice floats in liquidand sink in other liquid?
Recall Archimedes's principle. If the weight of the displaced liquid is more than the weight of the body put in the liquid then the body has to float. If weight of the body is more than that of the displaced liquid then body gets immersed.
If an object is less dense than the liquid it is put into it will?
It will sink in the fluid. It will sink in the fluid.
