Water has curious thermal properties. It contracts (gets denser) as it cools down just like other materials. However, at 4 degrees Celsius, it reaches the maximum density of 1 and then starts expanding if it is further cooled. Ice formed at zero degree Celsius is actually less dense than water and floats on it.

What happens to water at 4 degree?
at -4 degrees celsius if the water is a solid state of matter,it will turn into a liquid
When water at zero degree Celsius is heated its volume?
When water at zero degrees Celsius is heated, its volume initially decreases until it reaches its maximum density at 4 degrees Celsius. Beyond this temperature, as the water continues to heat up, it expands and its volume increases.
As water is cooled its density increases until it reaches about?
4 degrees Celsius, at which point it reaches its highest density. Below 4 degrees Celsius, water expands as it freezes into ice.
What is the mass of 29.35ml of water at 4 degree?
The mass of 29, 35 mL of water at 4 Celsius degrees is 29,349 178 2 g.
What liquid expands when heated?
All liquids expand when heated. e.g. Mercury in a thermometer. One exception may be water when heated form 0 to 4 degrees Celsius.
What happens to water at 4 degree?
at -4 degrees celsius if the water is a solid state of matter,it will turn into a liquid
What is Anomalous expansion of water?
The expansion of water when it is cooled from four degree centigrade to zero degree centigrade is known as "anomalous expansion of water." The unusual behaviour of water, when it expands below 4° celsius to 0° is called anmalus expansion of water.
Does water turns into ice at 4 degree Celsius?
No, water turns into ice at 0 degrees Celsius. At 4 degrees Celsius, water is still in its liquid form.
When water at 4 degrees Celsius is cooled it does it contract?
Yes, water contracts when cooled from 4 degrees Celsius because it is in its densest state at that temperature. As it cools further, it expands until it reaches its freezing point, at which point it expands again and turns into ice.
When water at zero degree Celsius is heated its volume?
When water at zero degrees Celsius is heated, its volume initially decreases until it reaches its maximum density at 4 degrees Celsius. Beyond this temperature, as the water continues to heat up, it expands and its volume increases.
What degree Celsius does water reach maximum density?
Water reaches maximum density at 4 degrees Celsius
As water is cooled its density increases until it reaches about?
4 degrees Celsius, at which point it reaches its highest density. Below 4 degrees Celsius, water expands as it freezes into ice.
What is the state of water at 100 degree Celsius 0 degree Celsius 4 degree Celsius?
At 100 degrees Celsius, water is in a gaseous state as steam, assuming standard atmospheric pressure. At 0 degrees Celsius, water is in a solid state as ice. At 4 degrees Celsius, water is in a liquid state and exhibits its maximum density, which is crucial for aquatic life. These states reflect the unique properties of water and its behavior across different temperatures.
What temperature does pure water reach maximum density?
Pure water reaches its maximum density at a temperature of approximately 4 degrees Celsius. This is why water typically contracts as it cools below this temperature, but expands as it freezes into ice.
Does water expand in a tank that is heated?
For the most part, liquid water expands when heated, and so does pretty much every material. Water's volumetric expansion is a few hundred parts per million per degree Celsius. The interesting thing about water, though, is that if it's below 4°C it expands as it gets colder, i.e. it has a negative volumetric expansion coefficient.
How do fishes remain alive at 4 degree celsius?
how do fishes remain alive at 4 degree celsius?
Is this true that water contracts on cooling but it expands when cooled further from 4 degree C to 0 degree C?
Yes it contract and the expansion from 4 to 0 degrees is due to the crystallisation of water molecules.
