Answer:

The options to this question are incomplete. The remaining two options are:

C. Water expands and becomes less dense when it freezes.

D. Water contracts and becomes less dense when it freezes.

The answer is C. Water expands and becomes less dense when it freezes.

Explanation:

Water is a chemical compound that exists in the three states of matter viz: solid as ICE, gas as vapour and liquid as WATER. However, due to the DENSITY properties of each state, ice floats on water. Ice is less dense than water.

When liquid water freezes, it's particles expands i.e increases in volume. Hence, it becomes less dense than water. This causes an iceberg to float on water because it has a lesser density compared to the liquid water caused by an expansion of its particles.

Answer:

5: 0.16

6: 50

Explanation:

Question 5:

We can use the equation density = mass/ volume.

We already have the mass (12g), but now we need to find the volume of the cylinder.

The equation for this is πr²h

So we know the radius is 2 and the height is 6.

π x (2)² x 6 = 24π = 75.398cm³

Now we can use the density equation above:

12/75.398 = 0.1592g/cm³ = 0.16g/cm³.

Question 6:

This time, we have to rearrange the equation density = mass/ volume to find the mass.

We know mass = density x volume.

From the question, the density is 2.5g/mL and the volume is 20mL.

Following the equation above, we do 2.5 x 20 to get 50g.
