Water's weight, when frozen into ice stays the same, but the density of water is much higher than ice's, since Ice has the same weight and contents of Water, but takes up significantly more space.

Ten lbs ice how many ounces of water?

Ten pounds (160 ounces) of ice melts into ten pounds (160 ounces) of water. The volume decreases when ice melts, but the weight does not change.


Why does weight melt ice?

The melting of ice represents a change of state (solid to liquid). When ice melts, nothing "disappears" from where it melted. The mass of the water is the same as that of the ice. Think of it in terms of molecules of water - the number stays the same and the mass will be the same. So, with the same force pulling those molecules down (gravity), there is no reason for mass to change as everything is still there. It's like weighing an apple, smashing it up, and weighing it again. It'll stay (roughly) the same. Thankyou for the answer on my homework


In which state water are less found?

Based on volume -- solid (ice) Based on mass or weight --- gaseous (water vapor or steam)


Do molecules of ice have less mass than the molecules of water?

Mass is just "the amount of stuff there is". We can measure it in kg. If I have 4kg ice and 4kg water, then the answer is "no", but I could just as easily have 4kg of ice and 5kg water, in which case the answer is "yes". If you mean "does freezing water make it heavier?", then the answer is no - 4kg water makes 4kg ice, and they will weigh the same. However, ice has a greater volume than water*, so freezing water will make it expand. *This is not true for every liquid/solid combo.


How many ml of water in an ice cube?

Any amount of water can make an ice cube. It's not the amount that determines if water will become ice, it is the temperature. The water just needs to be at a temperature of 0oC or lower, and it will become ice.

Does an ice cube with a certain weight melts and the resulting weight is?

The weight of the water will stay the same whether ice, water or steam, because the mass has not changed.


Can you gain weight by eating ice?

You cannot gain weight by eating ice. Ice is water and water is used to hydrate the body. This may actually help you lose weight.


What is the difference in weight between ice and water?

The difference in weight between ice and water is that ice is less dense than water, so a given volume of ice weighs less than the same volume of water.


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 ;)


Why is the volume of 1 gram of water the same as 1 gram of ice?

It is not. It varies slightly. The volume of ice will be larger than with water when water and ice are the same weight.


Can ice make you loss weight?

im not sure but apparentley drinking 12 glasses of water a day can make you loose 50 calories. so, seen as ice is just frozen water, i guess you can loose weight if you just eat alot of ice.


Why do you think ice has a higher density than water vapour?

Because ice is solid and has a heavier weight that cause it to have higher density and as for water vapour, it is gaseous and has lower density due to not having any weight.


Which has higher denesity ice or water?

Ice has a LOWER density than water as ice FLOATS in water!!!!!!! Upon freezing water to form ice, expansion occurs thus more volume and surface area but the same weight.


Is drinking ice water good for weight loss?

it makes your tummy full


What is the weight of a block of ice twenty four inches by twenty four inches by twenty four inches if ice weighs ninety two percent as much as water and water weighs 62.5 pounds per cubic foot?

The volume of the block of ice is 2ft * 2ft * 2ft or 8 ft3. The equivalent weight of 8 cubic feet of water is 8ft3 * 62.5 lb/ft3 or 500 lbs. To find the weight of ice take 92% of the equivalent weight of water or 0.92 * 500 lbs = 460 lbs


Do ice cubes help you lose weight?

Yes, in my opinion it does because water is proven to reduce hunger, lower cholesterol, and tones muscles. Since ice is frozen water, it does all of these things as well. It also gives you something to munch on so you dont think about food as much. :)Yes ;)


Why is the ice shelf floating?

Ice shelves are made up of thick, floating sheets of ice that are connected to a landmass. They are able to float because ice is less dense than water. As a result, the buoyant force of the water supports the weight of the ice shelf.
