If mass-energy equilivalence is taken into account, when water is cooled to from ice, the mass of water should

A

increase

B

remains unchanged

C

decrease

D

first increase then decrease

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
When water is cooled to form ice, energy is released
from water in the form of heat. As energy is equilivalent
to mass therefore when water is cooled to ice, its mass
decreases.
