As atoms in water cool, they align to form a crystal (ice). This causes the space between molecules to increase, so the water expands. You get less molecules in a cubic inch of ice than you do in a cubic inch of water, so you get less weight. Ice is about 9/10ths as dense as water, so a gallon of ice weighs about 10% less than a gallon of water -- about 7.2 lbs. v. 8 lbs.
Ice is lighter than liquid water because the molecular structure of ice allows for more empty space between molecules, causing it to be less dense. This means that a given volume of ice will weigh less than an equal volume of liquid water, resulting in ice floating on top of water.
A feather, a smartphone, and a pencil each weigh less than a kilogram.
A feather, a smartphone, a notebook, and a pencil each weigh less than a kilogram.
It tells you that the ice is less dense than the water.
A gram of ice would weigh the same on digital scales as it would on any other type of scale, which is 1 gram. The weight is measured by the force exerted by the ice on the scale due to gravity.
It depends how much water and how much ice you hae. if you have 1 ice cube and 6 cups of water, the water will weigh more. But, if you have 10 ice cubes and 1/4 cup of water the ice will weigh more.
No, 1 liter of ice cream is not equal to 1 kilogram. The density of ice cream can vary depending on its ingredients and air content. Generally, the density of ice cream is lower than that of water, which means 1 liter of ice cream will weigh less than 1 kilogram. To accurately convert between volume (liters) and mass (kilograms) for ice cream, you would need to know its specific density.
Yes. Ice expands when it freezes. So equal volumes would weigh different amounts, with the ice weighing less.
8.83% for clear ice. For ice with air inclusions the ice will weigh less.The density of clear ice is 0.917 grams per cubic centimeter.*NOTE: water reaches it maximum density at 4 degrees Celsius. And it's lowest density at 100 degrees Celsius. But it is generally regarded as being 1 gram per cc.
Ice is lighter than liquid water because the molecular structure of ice allows for more empty space between molecules, causing it to be less dense. This means that a given volume of ice will weigh less than an equal volume of liquid water, resulting in ice floating on top of water.
The weight of a jar of ice will remain the same whether it is in solid or liquid form. When ice melts, it simply changes from a solid to a liquid, but the total weight of the jar and its contents remains constant.
near the poles you weigh more
Clear ice weighs about 7.6 lbs per gallon so 21 gallons would weigh about 160 lbs.
they weigh less than 3000lbs
its no does it weigh more or less
Objects under water seem to weigh less but they have the same mass as they would out of water.
there is less gravity so you weigh less
