What else can I help you with?
Why is the ice in my drink not floating?
The ice in your drink is not floating because ice is less dense than liquid water. When ice is placed in a drink, it displaces an equal volume of liquid, causing it to sink to the bottom rather than float on top.
Why isn't your ice floating?
The ice is not floating because it is not less dense than the liquid it is in.
When ice cube floating in a tumbler of water melts completely why there is no overflow of water?
Its actually quite simple. The answer would be Anomalous expansion of Water, which means that the volume the Ice cubes are consuming in a glass filled upto the brim is more than water alone. When Ice melts and comes back into water form, it uses lesser volume (space) in the glass. Hence it does not allow the glass to overflow as the person pouring into the glass had poured in keeping into view the level of the ice (which uses more volume).
How do you call a visible mass of water floating in the atmosphere?
That visible mass of water floating in the atmosphere is called a cloud. Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals that have condensed from the air.
When a block of ice floating on water in a container melts what happens to the volume of water in the container it increases or decreases?
Strictly speaking, the volume of water will increase. For example, if you have a 200 gram chunk of ice floating in 1000 ml of water, the volume of the water itself is 1000 ml. When the ice melts, the volume of water will be 1200 ml. However, if you're asking whether the water level in the container will go up or down, the answer is "neither." The ice displaces an amount of water equal to the mass of the ice. When the ice melts, the mass does not chance, so the amount of the original water displaced by the melted ice does not change. Hence, the water level will remain the same.
What is unusual about the temperature of a mixture of ice and water as the ice is being melted?
Unlike almost all comparable mixtures, the ice is floating. In almost any other mixture, the ice would sink to the bottom.
Icebergs ?
A lage chunk of ice floating in the water, most of it is in the water.
What are large pieces of ice floating in the water called?
a very large piece of ice floating in the sea
What evidence in the picture proves ice has less density than water?
the ice cubes are floating in the water
What force keeps ice floating in water?
the density
What is an example of a density?
ice floating on top of water because water has more density than ice.
Why is the ice shelf floating?
Ice shelves are made up of thick, floating sheets of ice that are connected to a landmass. They are able to float because ice is less dense than water. As a result, the buoyant force of the water supports the weight of the ice shelf.
Why does the water level of the great lakes remain the same even if a chunk of floating ice melts in it?
Floating ice is already in the water, so its melting causes no rise in lake levels.
What is an ice shelf?
an ice shelf is a shelf of ice, which is floating on the water. There are several large ice shelves around Antarctica.
What is the benefit of floating ice?
The question is meaningless. Ice floats on water because it is lighter than water that how it is there is no advantage or disadvantage.
Is ice cubes floating in water a compound?
Water is a compound, H2O. Liquid water, and Ice, as well as steam are 3 different states of the same compound, H2O. Although different states or the same compound, there is nothing remarkable about ice in water.
Ice floating on water more or less dense?
more. Less
