Will a chunk of ice float higher than an ice cube?

A chunk of ice will float higher in water than an ice cube only if the ice chunk is larger than the ice cube.


Why doesn't float an ice cube float in air?

An ice cube will not float in air because air has a lower density than ice, making it less buoyant. Ice is less dense than water, which allows it to float in water due to buoyancy. In air, the buoyant force is not strong enough to support the weight of the ice cube, so it will not float.


Can an ice cube float on water?

yes!


Why is an ice cube able to float on liquid ice?

it's a solid


What is inside orange juice that makes the ice cube float longer?

acid from the orange juice has high density compared to the ice cube


What happens when you place an ice cube in a beaker of water does it float or sink?

float dua


If an aluminum cube had a mass of 20g and the length of each side was 2 centimeters between what to liquids would it float?

The density of the aluminum cube can be calculated using the formula: density = mass/volume. The volume of the cube can be calculated as the length of one side cubed (2cm x 2cm x 2cm). Once the density of the aluminum cube is determined, it can be compared to the densities of various liquids to determine where it would float. Liquids with densities between that of aluminum (2.7 g/cm³) and water (1 g/cm³) would allow the aluminum cube to float.


What liquids don't make ice float?

A liquid that is less dense than ice. Pure alcohol is 70% of the density of water- and ice would not float in it.


What happens if a ice cube embedded with a cork melts?

If the ice cube melts, the cork will float on the liquid water that was previously frozen as ice. Cork is less dense than water, so it will float rather than sink.


Which liquids will an ice cube floats?

ice cubes floats in the water, because it is in the liquid form


How can ice ice cube float?

It depends if the ice cube your talking about have the bigger density than the water which is 1.00G/ML then it will sink .... TO get the density of the cube u have u have to divide the mass over the volume of the cube..


Does ice sink of float when placed in these liquids water alcohol mercury ice?

AnswerAs water freezes,what happens to the water molecules that causes ice to float?why is the unquie? My answer is that the ice has comes more dense n is light to float up then to sink down.I am no physicist, but I think ice is less dense than liquid water. After all, water expands when frozen (unique to H2O, I think?). Ice floats in water, of course. As far as pure alcohol, my best guess is that yes, it floats in alcohol, too. I have to say that ice will float on mercury due the great difference in the densities of the two substances (mercury being much more dense than ice).
