it becomes less dense and floats. the molecules are also further apart an move very slowly.
Ice (solid) starts out as water (liquid) and when water freezes it becomes a solid.
The name for solid water is ice. It changes to a liquid when it melts.
Transformatiom from liquid water to solid water (ice).
It is a Physical Change. Melting it does not change what components/elements are found in snow. It is just a phase change from solid to liquid.
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.
No, it is a physical change
The change of state is Melting. Solid to liquid is melting. E.g. ice to water
a change of stateIce melting is a physical change
Ice is a solid and when it melts it becomes water, which is a liquid.
If the thing can change into the original appearance, just for example "if the ice melt it becomes liquid or water and if the water you put it into the freezer it will turn to ice again".
physical change because it is melting and it would be the same mass as it waas as a chunk of ice
Physical change is a change in the appearance of something but the object retains the same chemical compounds such as ice is still H20 because it's made of water. Three examples would be: freezing water - liquid becomes solid; melting ice - solid becomes liquid; or evaporation - liquid becomes gas.
If you freeze water(liquid) it becomes ice(hard) its a liquid in a solid form
It becomes cold water
No. That's because it is still water whether it is in the form of a solid or liquid. A physical change occurs when there is a change in the state of matter only.
When water becomes a liquid it is called condensation. The general term is liquefying. From ice to liquid it is called melting from gas or vapour to liquid it is called condensing.
The water in ice has a larger volume that water in its liquid form. That is why Ice floats. Ice is less dense than liquid water.
