Why ice bottle is heavier than water bottle?

An ice bottle is heavier than a water bottle because ice has a higher density than water. The same volume of ice will weigh more than the same volume of liquid water because ice molecules are more tightly packed together. When water freezes into ice, it expands and becomes more compact, leading to greater weight in the same space.


How can you make a bottle float then sink then float?

A bottle, though heavier than water, can be made to float by trapping air inside of it. This same bottle can be made to sink by filling it with water, or a substance heavier than water. It can again float by emptying it and trapping air in it.


How could you do an experiment to determine the volume of the filled soda bottle?

To determine the volume of the filled soda bottle, you could use the water displacement method. Fill a container with a known volume of water, then submerge the soda bottle filled with liquid in the container. Measure the volume of water that is displaced by the soda bottle, which will give you the volume of the liquid inside the bottle.

What is heavier a cup of water or a cup of sand?

The mass of a volume of a material depends on its density. A cup of water is likely to have less mass than a cup of sand, because the density of rock is generally much greater than water, and sand is fine particles of rock.Sand can be packed into a cup at different densities, but even if only lightly poured into the cup, the air between the sand particles will not be sufficient to make the density lighter than that of water, as most rock is at least twice as dense as water.Some rocks are apparently less dense than water: they even float! But, this is because they have trapped air bubbles in them which lighten them, and once ground into sand, they will be much denser as the air is no longer trapped within the rock.Some examples of densities are:water 1 g/cm3granite 2.7 g/cm3sandstone 2.3 g/cm3

What is heavier - a cup of water at room temperature or a cup of water frozen?

If you mean *exactly* one cup by volume, you have the iceberg scenario. The cup of frozen water will be less dense, so it will weigh less. If you just freeze a cup of water, don't spill any, and *don't* trim the excess to bring the volume back to exactly one cup, then it will weigh exactly what it did at room temp.
