Answer 2

Hope's Experiment

Explanation:

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 significance of this is that ice is less dense than water so it floats in water.

Scottish scientist Thomas Charles Hope designed an apparatus to demonstrate this anomaly of water. The goal of the Hope's experiment is to demonstrate that between the temperatures 0 °C and 4 °C, the density of water increases with increasing temperature.
