Question

You freeze 92g of water, and it becomes a cube of ice.
a. What is the mass of the ice cube?
b. The cube's volume os 100cm3. What is it's density?
c. Will the ice cube float or sink in water?

Answer 1

a. The mass doesn't change; it's still 92 g

b. density = mass/volume = 92g/100cm3

c. Is the density of the ice cube less than or greater than the density of water? If it is less than, the ice cube will float. If it is greater than, the ice cube will sink.

Answer 2

A perfectly square ice cube measures 3cm on each side. It has a mass of 24.6g
