The frozen expansion volume of saline water varies according to the solution, freezing temperature, as the air bubbles are not uniform. The density of frozen saline water is approximately 0.9 gm/L compared to pure ice which is 0.9 gm/L. It has an overall comparison ratio of approximately 0:8.

What is expansion rate of water to ice?

Frozen water expands to 8 1/3% of its normal volume.


Is frozen salt water heavier than frozen water?

The density of saline water is greater than the density of pure water.


Is this a fact or a opinion Water expands when it is frozen?

This is a fact. Water molecules form a crystal lattice structure when frozen, causing the molecules to move farther apart and the volume to increase, leading to expansion.


Does ink expand when frozen?

Yes, ink can expand when frozen due to the water content within it turning into ice, which typically takes up more volume than liquid water. This expansion can potentially damage containers, especially if they are not designed to accommodate the increased volume.


How much does water expand by when frozen?

twice as much


Can you separate water from salt when frozen?

No, not from the frozen state. If a saline solution (dissolved salt in water) is gently heated, the water will evaporate, leaving salt crystals behind. If the water vapour is captured and condensed, the result is drinking water.


When setting the water level in a feed and expansion cistern what allowance in volume should be made for expansion of the water?

A typical allowance for water expansion in a feed and expansion cistern is around 10%. This extra volume accommodates the expansion that occurs as the water heats up and reduces the risk of overflow or pressure buildup in the system.


What happens to frozen water that is different from most frozen liquids?

Frozen water (ice) is less dense than liquid water, which is why it floats. When water freezes, its molecules form a crystalline structure that causes it to expand, unlike most liquids that contract when they freeze. This expansion is why ice floats on water.


Does a cup have the same amount of water after it has been frozen?

No. There are two main differences (and most others follow on from them): the temperature is lower so the frozen water is solid rather than liquid and the density has decreased (the same volume of water will have expanded).


A student measures the volume of 1 liter of water then freezes the water The student then measures the volume of the ice In this scenario the water would have had the greater volume?

Water expands approximately 10% when frozen, so the water would have less volume than the ice.


Does frozen water weigh more?

No, frozen water weighs the same as liquid water. When water freezes, it expands in volume but maintains the same mass, so the weight remains constant.


Microwave frozen water bottle?

As water freezes and becomes ice it expands in volume. If a bottle is half-filled with water and then frozen, the bottle should remain intact because the volume of air in the bottle will contract as the water/ice expands and so the airspace will accommodate the final volume of the ice. If the bottle is completely filled with water and then frozen, the bottle will most likely break because there is no airspace to 'absorb' the expansion of the water/ice. As the freezing is a relatively slow process, the bottle will not explode, but will in all likelyhood crack and may break apart.
