When water freezes, the molecules arrange themselves in a more ordered and expanded crystal structure compared to when water is in its liquid state. This increased structure results in a larger volume for the same amount of water.
No, frozen water weighs the same as liquid water. When water freezes, it expands in volume but maintains the same mass, so the weight remains constant.
density is mass/volume that is the total mass per 1cm3 of the liquid in question. as water becomes colder, its particles loose energy and move closer together, increasing the number of particles per 1cm3 and therefore increasing the amount of mass in that 1cm3
Ice is less dense than liquid water, which means that ice takes up more space for the same amount of mass compared to liquid water.
Water expands slightly when if freezes (due to hydrogen bonding) and the resulting ice is less dense than water.(Actually, the water still weighs the same- it just takes up more space when frozen)
Well, honey, water is water whether it's frozen or liquid, so a gallon of frozen water weighs the same as a gallon of liquid water. The only difference is the temperature and state of matter, not the weight. So, no need to worry about your freezer breaking the scale!
No. There are two main differences (and most others follow on from them): the temperature is lower so the frozen water is solid rather than liquid and the density has decreased (the same volume of water will have expanded).
It increases. Think of water: ice cubes take up more space than does the same amount of water when in liquid form.
Yes, unlike most other liquids which shrink when frozen, water actually expands at about a 9% rate at its freezing point.
Water is a liquid that expands when it freezes. This is due to the unique structure of water molecules, causing them to form a crystalline lattice when frozen, which takes up more space than liquid water.
Because the when water freezes the atoms contract closely together. When the atoms are heated they are again contracted and take up surface area. The size is the same through the whole process but the amount of surface area changes.
Use hot water and more water. Remember though that there is going to be a certain amount of space in the water to dissolve a certain amount of salt. at this point no amount of heating will allow any more to be dissolved and is what is known as a saturated solution.
no it isnt
When water freezes, it expands and becomes less dense, causing it to float. This is because the molecular structure of ice forms a crystalline lattice that takes up more space than liquid water molecules. Therefore, frozen water (ice) is lighter than liquid water, which is why ice floats on water.
Water's weight, when frozen into ice stays the same, but the density of water is much higher than ice's, since Ice has the same weight and contents of Water, but takes up significantly more space.
Yes, seawater expands when frozen into an iceberg because the density of ice is lower than that of liquid water. As the water freezes and forms into ice, it occupies more space, causing it to expand. This expansion is what causes icebergs to float with a portion visible above the water's surface.
As water, or any substance, absorbs heat energy, its molecules gain kinetic energy. Because they are moving around more, they take up more space. Density is the measure of how much stuff is in a given space. More space and same amount of stuff equals lower density.
During global warming all of the water was frozen leading to not much water now that it got warmer (green house affect ) there is more water now than then written by a fifth grader
