water exspands 25milimeters.

The answer above is not correct.
The expansion of water after freezing is approx. 9 %.
This phenomenon is due to the fact that hydrogen bonds between water molecules are stronger at low temperatures.
What else can I help you with?
Why does water expand by 10 percent when it freezes?
Its very unusual for a substance to expand when it freezes, water is just odd that way. Its just a property of water, its moleucles expand in the area they take up and take up more space.
Since water expands when it freezes can a tree explode from too much pressure if it freezes?
No. Wood is made up of fibers that will expand as the water expands.answ2. In severe frosts, trees not adapted to the climate will split with a hearty crack.Willows suffer from this in the colder parts of the South Island of New Zealand. Where the willow is an introduced species.
Water works to expand joints in rocks because it expands as it evaporates true or false?
No. Water expands when it freezes, causing the rocks to crack and break.
What happens to volume of water when it freezes?
it remain the same as it has definite volume.
As water freezes it expands?
Yes, water does frezee as it expands because of the presure. For example, if there was a hole in a rock and you put water in the rock and let it sit over night on a cool night the rock might crack. This proves that the pressure of ice freezing is higher than the rock's pressure.
Does water expand?
When it freezes.
When water freezes it expands?
Yes, it will expand.
What happens to the volume of a water balloon when it freezes?
When water freezes, it expands as it turns into ice. This expansion causes the volume of the water balloon to increase, which can lead to the balloon bursting if the ice takes up too much space.
What happens if water freezes in a crack of a rock?
The crack would expand because the water in the rock, as it freezes, expands.
Why does water expand by 10 percent when it freezes?
Its very unusual for a substance to expand when it freezes, water is just odd that way. Its just a property of water, its moleucles expand in the area they take up and take up more space.
What type of bonds cause water to expand when it freezes?
Hydrogen bonds cause water to expand when it freezes. As water cools and freezes, the hydrogen bonds between water molecules form a crystalline structure with a more open arrangement than in its liquid state, causing it to expand and become less dense.
Can you keep ice from expanding?
can you keep water from expanding when it freezes?
Does 20 percent of water expand as it freezes?
It is not that 20 per cent of the water expands - all of the water expands.
What is the name of the law of chemistry or physics that makes water expand when it freezes?
the law of anomalous expansion of water.
Why ten centimeters of snow melts to just 1 centimeter of water?
When water freezes in expand by 10%
At what temperature does water expand?
when it is in the form of ice. When water freezes it expands. If a rock has a crack in it and water goes in the crack and freezes, it will expand and melt over and over. eventually it can split the rock.
When water with closed container placed in refrigeratorwhen it gets solid state why the container will break?
When water freezes, it also expands in volume. Unless the container can also expand, it will break, due to the powerful pressure of the expanding water. If water freezes it will expand because the molecules are separated in the container.
