If ice floating on water in a vessel melts, the water level in the vessel - (1) increases (2) does not change (3) first increases before decreasing (4) decreases

1 Answer

Answer :

(2) does not change Explanation: When ice floating on water in a vessel melts, the water level in the vessel does not change. This is because when floating, the ice displaces an amount of water equal to its mass, and when melted, it becomes an amount of water equal to its mass. It is accordance with Archimedes Principle, which states that the mass of the liquid displaced by a floating object is equivalent to the mass of the object.

Description : Ice cubes are added to a glass of pure water and a glass of pure alcohol. The ice would be – (1) at a higher level in water (2) at a higher level in alcohol (3) at the same level in both (4) floating in alcohol and sinking in water

Last Answer : (1) at a higher level in water Explanation: Density of water is approx 1 g/ml; Density of Ice is approx 0.93g/ml; and Density of 100% pure ethanol is 0.79g/ml. So the density of ice cubes is lesser than water, but higher than alcohol. So it will float in water, but sink in alcohol.

Description : When pressure is increased the melting point of ice – (1) increases (2) does not change (3) decreases (4) depends on the impurities in the ice

Last Answer : (3) decreases Explanation: In this case. if we increase the pressure on the ice the ice-water system wants to try to lower it again. It can do that by making itself fit into a ... the melting point of ice decreases because of the inversal relationship between the pressure and melting point of ice.
