Yes the volume of ice changes when the ice melts.

In fact the volume of ice goes on increasing up to 0 degree Celsius and when the ice melts completely the volume of ice decreases on the contrary.

Yes because when ice freezes, it expands and when it melts, it gets smaller.

The ice ball or brick floats in water tank Then if the ice melts what will happend?

When the ice ball or brick melts, it will turn into water. The overall water level in the tank will remain the same because the volume of water displaced by the ice when it was floating is equal to the volume of water produced when the ice melts.


Which of the following happens when ice melts?

1st it "changes" into water, and if heated long enough, at high enough temperature, it "changes" to steam, then, it eventually evaporates.


When Ice floating on water melts what happens to liquid level and why?

When ice cube is submerged on water...The upthrust created on the ice cube by water is equal to the weight of the displaced water...when the ice cube is melting its volume changes but its weight remains the same and its exactly equal to the weight of displaced water when the ice cube was frozen...therefore the 'volume of of melted water' fits exactly to the 'volume of displaced water when the ice cube was frozen'... So the water level does not change! -Shenal K Mendis ;)


What stays the same when ice melts?

When ice melts, the chemical composition of the substance remains the same. Only the physical state changes from a solid to a liquid, while the molecules that make up the ice remain unchanged.


Why don't floating ice cubes raise the water level when they melt?

cause whhen ice melts it turns to water that all i should have to say **The previous answer is nonsense. If the dough (or whatever other material you wish to use) is floating in a full cup of water with ice, as the ice melts the level of the cup WILL NOT RISE. Simple physics, ice is less dense than water. Density is equal to mass divided by volume or Density = Mass/Volume Therefore, differentiating between equal masses of water and ice, the melted ice will have LESS volume than the equal (mass) amount of water in the glass thereby having no effect on the overall volume of water in the glass..... to paraphrase the first answer-er ... 'duh'

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.


What changes when ice cubes melts?

a ice cube melts when it heats up


How does ice changes to water?

Melts


When ice is melted the volume of the ice decreases?

When ice melts, it transforms from a solid to a liquid, which results in a decrease in volume. The molecules in the solid ice are packed more tightly than in the liquid water, leading to a lower volume when the ice melts.


Name a solid that changes into a liquid not how it changes?

ice, it melts


What would be the volume of water in a 250-mL container once the ice melts?

The volume of water will still be 250 mL once the ice melts. The ice will melt into water, but the total volume of the container will remain the same.


What happens to the volume of a beaker when ice melts in it?

The volume of a beaker doesn't change, it's a beaker. What your were probably trying to ask is what happens to the volume of the ice when it melts. The volume decreases; water is special. Unlike other substances when it freezes it expands. That is why ice floats, it is less dense then water.


When ice forms water its volume comes down so why would ocean levels rise if Arctic ice melts?

Much of arctic ice sits above the level of the ocean. When this ice melts it adds to the volume of the ocean without subtracting any ice volume.


As ice melts and changes from solid to liquid?

Yes it does.
