When water freezes its mass increases or decreases?

When water freezes, its mass stays the same. However, its volume increases, which is why ice expands compared to liquid water.


Does volume in a solid increase or decrease?

Molecules in solids are closer together than liquids or gases so the volume generally decreases. Water is one exception to the rule. Water increases in volume by about 9% as it freezes.


What happens to volume of water when it freezes?

it remain the same as it has definite volume.


When water freezes its volume becomes what?

When water freezes, it turns into what we call ice. ice is a solid. no offense, but um stupid question.


What properties change when water freezes to ice?

When water freezes to ice, it becomes less dense, expands in volume, and forms a crystalline structure. Additionally, its molecules slow down and move into a more ordered arrangement, resulting in a solid state.


When water freezes it's mass decreases?

When water freezes, its mass does not actually decrease; it remains constant. However, the volume increases because ice is less dense than liquid water, causing it to expand. This phenomenon is why ice floats on water. The misconception may arise from observing the change in volume rather than mass.


How does the volume of a kilogram of water when change when it freezes?

it changes because when it freezes, the molecules within the water slows down thus changing the placement of it, which also changes the over size or volume of water.


Explain what happens to volume as water temperature goes from 4C to 0C and freezes.?

This is because at the temperature of 0degree ice is there and ice consists of vacant spaces present in them when we increase the temperature the ice starts melting and gets converted into water and the water compounds occupy the space and therefore the volume decreases as all of the vacant spaces got covered by the water compounds.


When water freezes what does the volume do?

Increases.


Does salt water expand when it freezes?

Yes, salt water expands when it freezes. The salt decreases the water's freezing point, so it remains a liquid at a lower temperature than freshwater. As it starts to freeze, the saltwater becomes more concentrated, leading to an increase in volume and expansion.


When liquid water freezes into ice its density .?

Decreases


What happens to the volume of water when it freezes?

Water is unique. It expands in volume when heated, and also expands in volume when frozen (hence, burst water pipes (unless insulated) when there is a thaw after freezing winter weather).
