Why is ice less dense than water?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Ice has a different structure than water, they align themselves in a regular lattice rather than completely random in a liquid. The orientation of hydrogen bonds cause molecules to push farther apart, which lowers the density.

Answer:

<em>Ice has a very different structure than liquid water</em>

Explanation:

<em>the lattice arrangement allows water molecules to be more spread out than in a liquid, and, thus, ice is less dense than water.</em>

Polymerization and the break down of a polymer are two opposite reactions. What role does a water molecule play in both of them?
n200080 [17]
Well in polymerization or in dehydration synthesis, the individual monomer molecules contain either H or OH attached to the end of their respective molecules. When they chemically compline together both the H and OH come off or break from their respective molecules and form water as a product. In place, a covalent bond is produced connecting the monomers together. In break down of polymers, with Water, the water molecule essentially disconnects the large molecule at the same place where it would have formed a covalent bond, and causes one of the monomers to bond to either a H and or OH. Separating the 2 compounds.

How do animals receive the sun's energy?
Elza [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Animals don't need energy from the sun, not directly anyway. Animals get energy from the food they eat. However, that food either got its energy by eating other food, or by photosynthesis, and sooner or later almost all energy on Earth comes from the sun.
