Question

The precise volume of water in a beaker depends on the temperature of the water. Rank from greatest to least the volume of water at these temperatures: (a) 0°C, (b) 4°C, and (c) 10°C.

@Abhisar

Answer 1

Least will be at 4°C

Answer 2

Highest will be at 10°C

Answer 3

ok

Answer 4

how did you figure that out?

Answer 5

Water has a special property !
Volume of other substances increase with an increase with temperature and decrease with a decrease in temperature

Answer 6

But with water, it decreases upto 4°C and then start increasing

Answer 7

i understand now

Answer 8

Due to this the density of ice (0°C) is smaller than liquid water (density=mass/volume). Due to this ice floats on water.

Answer 9

Isn't it amazing ?

Answer 10

indeed
