Question

GIVING 100 POINTS PLEASE ANSWER SOON When ponds freeze, they freeze at the surface first before freezing at the bottom. Which property of water explains why this might happen? Density Adhesion High boiling point High specific heat

Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{Density}$

Explanation:

This is because of density. Since Ice is less dense than water, the ice even formed inside the pond then starts floating on the surface of water. Because of this density, Ice floats on water and thus the water freezes at the surface.
