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.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to the mass when water freezes?
No, as long as it is the same peice of ice. The volume and the density change but not the mass
Is ice's mass more than water when it freezes?
No. Only the volume[size] changes.
When water freezes does it decreases in volume?
Yes, water expands when it freezes, causing it to increase in volume. This expansion is due to the formation of a regular crystalline structure in the ice, which leads to the molecules being spaced farther apart than in liquid water.
When water freezes does the thermal energy increases or decreases?
It decreases, it is less dense.A2.Any body can only pass thermal energy on to another body if the first is at a higher temperature than the second. Therefore when a body cools it has less potential to pass energy to another one. In addition, when water freezes it releases latent heat to the atmosphere (which of course must be colder than the freezing water), so that is another reduction in it's potential thermal energy.
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.
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 the mass of water increase when it is frozen?
No, the volume it occupies and the density will change however the mass will remain constant
What does water form when it freezes?
When it freezes, water becomes ice.ICE- A surface, layer, or mass of frozen water.
When water evaporates its mass decreases?
no the mass remains the same
When a substance freezes what happens to the mass?
When a substance freezes, the mass remains the same. Freezing involves a phase change from liquid to solid, where the molecules arrange themselves into a more ordered structure, but the actual amount of matter (mass) stays constant.
When a submarine pumps water out of its flotation tanks its density decreases and it floats. Why does its density decrease?
Density = mass / volume. If the mass decreases, the density decreases.
What is thermal expasion?
Its when a liquid freezes and expands or contracts. Ex. Water when it freezes has more mass than the liquid

How will the mass of the water be affected when the waterfreezes?
There is no effect of freezing on the mass of water when it freezes. The thing which is affected by freezing is its volume and hence, it's density.
When a submarine pumps water out of its floating tanks its density decrease and it floats why does its density decrease?
Density = mass / volume. If the mass decreases, the density decreases.
When a submarine pumps water out of its flotation tanks it and density decreased and float's does its density decrease?
Density = mass / volume. If the mass decreases, the density decreases.
