Obviously I know ice is just solid water but would ice be heavier than the same volume of water if you account for the expansion of water as it freezes?
I’m only curious because I know that as water freezes it traps air molecules inside its crystalline structure so I was wondering if it trapped enough to cause a distinguishable difference in weight between the two states.
The same volume of ice as water will be lighter, since it is less dense. That’s why ice floats on water
I blame the fact I just woke up for not thinking about the difference in density 😅 I was just filling up my water bottle with ice cubes and thought about how ice expands and my brain went “bigger must mean heavier”
So here’s a question for you? What weighs more, a kilogramme of steel or a kilogramme of feathers?
The feathers. You have to carry the weight of what you did to those birds.
