A piece of ice is floating in a beaker containing water when ice melts, the temperature falls from `20^@C to 4^C` When ice melts, the temperature falls from `20^@C to 4^@C` and the level of water :

A

remains uchanged

B

falls

C

rises

D

changes erratically

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
