Water and Ice Module

I reviewed Water and Ice Module.

Water is a polar molecule. Why does ice float? Because ice is less dense than water.The density of water is 1.0 gm/cubic cm.

The density of ice Ih is 0.931 gm/cubic cm.


In liquid water each molecule is hydrogen bonded to approximately 3.4 other water molecules.

In ice each each molecule is hydrogen bonded to 4 other molecules.

When I want to drink cold water I put in a freezer a bottle of water using PET bottle .
Sometimes I forget to drink it next day expanded. It was happened for this reason!
