The density of ice `x cm^(-3)` and that of water is `y gcm^(-3)`. What is the change in volume when `mg` of ice melts?

A

`m(y-x)cm^(3)`

B

`(y-x)/(m) cm^(3)`

C

`mxy(x-y)cm^(3)`

D

`m((1/y-1/x) cm^(3)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Volume of ice = `M/(x)` volume of water = `M/y`
`:. Change in volume =`(M)/(x) - (M)/(y) = M((1)/(y)-(1)/(x)) cm^(3)` .
