Answer 2

Option D) all will cause the same rise in water level

Three metal cubes have the same volume but are made of different metals. Each one is lowered into a beaker of water. Use the data in the table to decide which one will cause the biggest rise in water level.

• Because when ice is floating, it moves a volume of water proportional to its mass, and when ice melts, it returns a volume of water corresponding to its mass. Usually, as the water gets colder, the water level decreases slightly; however, if the water is less than 4 degrees C, the water level slightly increases.
• A floating object requires that the water it displaces weights the same as the thing itself.
• Therefore, theoretically, the volume of water that the ice cubes displace is exactly equivalent to the volume that they will eventually occupy when they melt. The water level should remain unchanged after the ice cubes melt.
• In essence, the ice raises the water level even while it is solid, which is how this works.
• When ice cubes are submerged in water and allowed to float, they will be around 93% submerged, which is equal to the product of the ice cube's density and the water's density. The cube raises the level of water by 93 percent of its volume divided by area since it is 93 percent submerged. The water that the ice cubes transform into when they melt is only 93% as volumnous as the ice since water is less dense.
• As a result, 93 percent of the full ice cube's volume is represented by the water that the melted ice added to the container.
