Short Answer:
Water reaches it maximum density at 3.98 °C (39.16 °F).
The density of ice 0.9168 g/cm3 at 0 °C .
The density of water, 0.99984 g/cm3 at 0 °C and 0.99997 g/cm3 at 4 °C.
Explanation:
Water gets more dense as it cools until it reaches 4 degrees C. At that point, because water molecules (and the forces between them) are not spherical, they begin to exhibit a tendency to hold particular orientations at preferred separation distances that keep them further apart than was possible above 4 C. Cooling from 4 C towards 0 C removes more kinetic energy allowing the preferred orientations and separations to become more orderly, further decreasing density. At freezing, 0 C, the nonspherical forces between molecules lock them into the preferential orientations and separations of the ice crystal arrangement with a sharp increase in average separation and decrease in bulk density.
Water is at its greatest density at 3.98 degrees Centigrade
Water is at its maximum density at 4 oC.

The density of water is greatest at?
Water is most dense at 4oC. At this temperature it has a density of 1000 kg/m3
Does the density of water depend on the temperature of water?
Most definitely yes. Water has its maximum density at 4° C. By definition this is the point at which clean water has a density of 1 exactly. It gradually becomes less dense as its temperature rises. When it changes state for liquid to gas, it undergoes a tremendous change in density, dropping to 0.0006 at 100° C. When it freezes, it also undergoes a big change in density, but not as drastic. It drops to 0.9150 at 0° C. Since it is less dense than liquid water, ice floats.
Water is most dense at what Celsius?
The maximum density for water occurs at 4 C.
Is it true that the hotter the water the denser it is?
No. Water has its highest density at about 4 °C. Below and above this temperature, its density decreases.
As temperature of the water decreases the density of water does what?
As temperature of liquid water decreases the density remains relatively stable until water changes phase change into solid (crystallization) ice at which point it decreases abruptly by about 10%. Continued cooling has little effect on the density of ice.
The Temperature at which water possesses maximum density is?
At 4C density is maximum.It is measured as 1000Kg/m3.
When is water's density at its greatest?
The maximum density of water occurs at a temperature of 4°C
How is density of water related to temperature?
The density of water increase from 100 oC to 4 oC (here is a maximum); after this temperature the density decrease.
When water is warmed from its freezing temperature to its temperature of maximum density it?
expands
At what temperature does maximum density occur?
In most substances, maximum density occurs at the lowest temperature attainable. The only substance that this is not true for is water, whose maximum density is at 3.98 degrees Celsius.
At what temperature does luquid water have its maximum density?
~4 °C
What happens to a sample water when it is heated between 4c and 100c?
Its temperature rises. As 40C is the temperature where water has its maximum density, then the density will drop as well
At what temperature does fresh water have the highest density?
The maximum density of ultrapure water (0,9999720 g/cm3) is at 3,98 0C.
As water is cooled from 4 degrees C to 0 degrees C its density?
4° C is the temperature of maximum density for water. Change temperature in either direction from there -- whether you warm it or cool it -- the density decreases.
How does temperature affect water?
The temperature and salinity of seawater determine its density. Water gets denser as it gets saltier and reaches a maximum density at 4 °C. Salinity does affect the boiling point and freezing point of water, but not its temperature.
What temperature does pure water reach maximum density?
4 degrees Celsius
How does water temperature affect water salinity?
The temperature and salinity of seawater determine its density. Water gets denser as it gets saltier and reaches a maximum density at 4 °C. Salinity does affect the boiling point and freezing point of water, but not its temperature.
