Question

Define
anomalous
expansion
of
water.
At
what
temperature
water


has
the
least
volume
and
highest
density?​

Answer 1

Answer:

the expansion of water when it is cooled from 4°C

to 0°C, is known as anomalous expansion of water.

at 4°C , water the least volume and highest density

Answer 2

The answers are as follows :

• Anomalous expansion of water is the abnormal behavior of water that it shows between the temperature range of 4°C and 0°C where instead of contracting on freezing like other substances, it expands. The density of water decreases when it goes from 4°C to 0°C and is highest at 4°C.
• Water has the least volume and highest density at 4°C.
