Question

(12) Explain anomalous expansion (behaviour) of water. Dan​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Anomalous expansion of water: water has a unique property of anomalous expansion. When water is cooled from room temperature it first contracts in volume and becomes increasingly dense as do other liquids, but at 4° C water reaches its maximum density. On further cooling it starts expanding and become less dense.

Answer 2

ANSWER:-

An increase in the volume of a substance that results from a decrease in its temperature, such as is displayed by water at temperatures between 0 and 4°C.
