Question

solid sinks in water but ice being a solid float on water why

Answer 1

your answer is.......


1)It is depends upon the anomalous behaviour of water....
2)If we heat water from 0°C upto 4°C, it contracts instead of expanding..
3)At 4°C its volume is minimum due to contraction.
4)The behaviour of water between its temperature from 0°C to 4°C is called anomalous behaviour of water..
5)The maximum density of water is at 4°C.
6)Hence,solid ice being float on water.
7)All other solid substances have more density than water...the temperature of ice is zero...hence water have more density than ice..




thus ice float on water...
