Why steam can be compressed while ice cannot?

sream is water particles in air, when compressed, the air is squeezed out. Ice can compress a little - when water freezes, it expands. People have used this to split stone. For example, to get the blocks for ancient Egyptian sculpture they would carve around the part the wanted, add water and let the overnight freeze break out the rest.


Is superheated steam compressible?

Not a hydrologist, but I'd lay money on the fact that steam is mostly air, and ice is mostly water.

What are the similar properties of steam and ice?

Steam and ice are both forms of water. They have the same chemical composition (H2O) but different physical states due to differences in temperature. Steam is gaseous water at high temperatures, while ice is solid water at low temperatures.


Why steam engines have high starting torque?

in steam engines, the steam has to be compressed, which needs less torque than the internal combustion engine, where fuel air mixture is compressed Hence, the case!


Which has highest density steam or ice how or why?

Ice has a higher density than steam. This is because ice molecules are packed closely together in a solid state, while steam molecules are spread out in a gaseous state. Steam is also less dense than liquid water, as the molecules in steam have more energy and move farther apart when transitioning from liquid to gas.


What are ice and steam forms of?

Ice is the solid form of water, while steam is the gaseous form of water. They both represent different phases of the same substance, H2O.

Sound travels faster in ice water compared to steam. This is because sound waves travel faster in denser mediums, and ice water is denser than steam. So, the speed of sound in ice water is faster than in steam.


What statement is true as you move from ice to water to steam?

How do you turn ice into steam?
