Question

Draw a graph showing variation in volume of water with temperature in range of 0°C to 10°C.

Answer 1

This one in my science textbook. I was having the same doubt so I went and asked teacher and she explained me

Answer 2

Temperature-volume graph of water

Explanation:

The variations in volume of water with temperature in range of 0°C to 10°C demonstrates the anomalous expansion of water. The anomalous expansion of water refers to the fact that water, unlike most substances, expands when it freezes. The density of water increases as temperature decreases, but reaches a maximum at 4 degrees C then begins to expand.

The graph plotted for temperature and volume variations of water shows a kind of parabola. Please refer to the attached picture for the graph.
