Density of water in the solid state is.............. than the density of water i
Density of water in the solid state is.............. than the density of water in the liquid state
- A. higher
- B. lower
- C. same
- D. none of these
Step-by-step solution
Water has the unique property that its solid form (ice) is less dense than its liquid form due to the hydrogen-bonded crystal lattice structure in ice, which creates more empty space compared to the liquid state.
