Question

Q-1) Liquids generally has lower density as compared to solid. But you must have observed that ice floats of water. Give reasons

Answer 1

liquid has lower density as compared to solid but it has higher density than ice because the orientation of hydrogen bonds causes molecules to push farther apart, which lowers the density.hence liquid has higher density than ice.

Liquid generally have lower density as compared to solids. But you must have observed that ice floats on water.Give reason why

$\large\green{\underline{\underline{\mathscr{\red{\:\:\:\:\:Answer\:\:\:\:\:}}}}}$

Density of ice is less than the density of water.The low density of ice can be attributed to the small pores it was which allows it to trap air.Hence ice floats on water.
