The different between ice and water is that ice is solid and water is liquid. Under standard pressure, water exists in the solid form as ice when its temperature is below 0° Celsius (32° F). It exists in liquid form between 0° and 100° Celsius.

Why do ice cubes flip over in water?

Ice cubes can flip over in water due to the difference in density between ice and water. As ice begins to melt, the water around it becomes denser and exerts more pressure on the ice cube. This pressure can cause the ice cube to flip over as it melts unevenly.


Is ice cubes floating in water a compound?

Water is a compound, H2O. Liquid water, and Ice, as well as steam are 3 different states of the same compound, H2O. Although different states or the same compound, there is nothing remarkable about ice in water.


What happens when water is dropped in ice?

When water is dropped onto ice, the initial temperature difference causes the water to freeze upon contact with the ice. This freezing action creates a bond between the water droplet and the ice surface, eventually forming a solid layer of ice.


If a block of ice has the density of 0.97gcm3 how much of it will sink below the water?

Since the density of ice is less than that of water (1g/cm3), some of the ice will float. The amount of ice that will sink below the water depends on the volume of the ice and the density difference between ice and water. To calculate the immersed volume, you'd need to consider Archimedes' principle.


Why ice berg is over the water?

Icebergs are formed when chunks of ice break off from glaciers or ice shelves and float in the water. Due to the difference in density between ice and water, only about 10% of an iceberg is visible above the water, with the rest below the surface. This visible portion is what we see "over the water."

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.


What is the difference between two things?

The difference between two things is what traits or characteristics set them apart; why they are different. For example:Water and IceThe difference between water and ice is that water is a liquid and water is not. Another thing is that ice is very cold and water can be warm.


What is the difference between fresh water and potable water?

the difference between fresh water and potable water is fresh water can come form the ground, and/or, ice burgs.


What is the difference between ice and ice water?

The different between ice and water is that ice is solid and water is liquid. Under standard pressure, water exists in the solid form as ice when its temperature is below 0° Celsius (32° F). It exists in liquid form between 0° and 100° Celsius.


What is the difference between the shape from the solid form ice and the liquid form?

Water expands when turning to ice (which is why water pipes can burst in winter). So the difference is in volume (size).


What is the difference between Ice-cream and Popsicle?

Well ice cream is genraly ice "cream" and a popcicle is just frozen ice water with flavouring in it. ( basicaly popcicles are ice cubes)


What is the difference between an ice floe and an ice berg?

Ice flows consists of surface ice. Ice bergs are a huge piece of thick ice, the majority of which is under water. It's been said that as much as 80% of an ice berg is under water.


What the difference between solidliquidand gas?

Ice is a solid, water is a liquid, and oxygen is a gas in the air we breath.


What is the difference between the water from melted ice and the ice itself?

The water from melted ice is in liquid form, while ice itself is in solid form. The water molecules in liquid water have more energy and are able to move more freely compared to the tightly packed ice molecules.


Which would melt more ice-a pot of hot water or tub of warm water?

A pot of hot water would melt ice faster than a tub of warm water because the higher temperature difference between the ice and the hot water allows for quicker heat transfer. The hot water has more thermal energy to transfer to the ice, causing it to melt faster.


Why does ice have a difference difference density than liquid water?

It has a different amount of space between molecules.


Why does ice crack in water and what factors contribute to this phenomenon?

Ice cracks in water due to the difference in temperature between the ice and the water. When the ice comes into contact with the warmer water, it causes the ice to expand and contract, leading to stress and ultimately cracking. Other factors that contribute to this phenomenon include the thickness of the ice, the speed at which the temperature changes, and the presence of impurities in the ice.
