Why does ice burg not melt with salt water all around?
Icebergs are made up of freshwater ice, which has a lower freezing point than seawater. The salt in the seawater reduces its freezing point, making it harder for the icebergs to melt. In addition, the dense, cold freshwater from the iceberg forms a protective layer around it, insulating it from the warmer seawater.
What is more dense cold water or warm?
cold ocean water is more dense than warm water
What type of water is more dense cold salty water warm or less salty?
Cold salty water will be the most dense.
What type of water is more dense cold salty or warm less salty water?
Cold salty water will be the most dense.
Does ice melt in cold freshwater or cold saltwater?
Oh, dude, ice melts in cold freshwater because the freezing point of freshwater is 0 degrees Celsius, so when it's in contact with ice, it warms up and melts the ice. In cold saltwater, the freezing point is lower because of the salt, so the ice would actually melt slower. But hey, no need to lose sleep over it, ice is gonna do its thing regardless!

What causes seawater to become more dense?
Seawater becomes more dense when the temperature decreases or when salinity increases. Cold water is denser than warm water, and water with higher salt content is denser than water with lower salt content.
What is more dense cold or warm ocean water?
As water gets colder it eventually becomes ice. So judging by that, as water gets colder the water gets denser to the point of being a solid. Cold water is more dence than warm water. Ice is less dense than water (which is why it floats) so... but I think the above is still correct.
What is the density in seawater determined by?
Seawater's density varies by temperature and salinity. I.e., cold water is more dense than warm water, and water with a higher salinity (more dissolved salt) is less dense than water with a lower salinity.
How does the density of seawater vary with changes in temperature?
As seawalter gets colder it becomes more dense, so cold sea water is more dense than warmer water.
What kind of water is found in the benthic zone of a lake?
Cold and dense
What is area where warm and cold seawater combine?
Mixing zone
When dense cold air meets lees dense warmer air the warm air is pushed?
the warm air is pushed down because its lees dense than the cold air if cold air is more dense.
Is warm salt water more dense than cold salt water?
Cold water is more dense.
What is more dense cold water or warm?
cold ocean water is more dense than warm water
When dense cold air meets less dense warmer air the warm is pushed?
When dense,cold air meets less dense,warmer air, the warm air is pushed up
When dense cold air meets less dense warmer air the air is pushed?
When dense,cold air meets less dense,warmer air, the warm air is pushed up
