To identify: Whether water at the given temperatures will expand or contract when warmed.
Answer to Problem 49A
It will contract at
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Denser the water be, the lesser volume it would have.
The given temperatures are
Increasing the temperature will increase collisions and will make the object hotter because of which particle will intend to expand in it. At
Now, at
Conclusion:
Thus, at
