Question

If the relative density of ice is 0.91, what will be the decrease in volume when 50g of ice melt ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Volume = 54.91 $\sf{cm^3}$

Explanation:

$\sf{\delta{_{ice}} = 0.91}$

We know that , $\sf{ Density = {\dfrac{Mass} {Volume}}}$

$\mathsf{0.91 = {\dfrac{50}{Volume}}}$

$\mathsf{Volume = {\dfrac{50}{0.91}}}$

$\mathsf{Volume = 54.91 cm^3}$
