Explain the given graph :
Observe the graph below . Temperature of water is raised from `0^(@)C` , observe the change in volume at different temperatures and explain the behavior of water .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) AS water at `0^(@)C` is heated upto `4^(@)C` it contracts instaead of expanding . The volume of water at `4^(@)C` is minimum . If water at `4^(@)C` is further heaed then it expands and its volume increases.
(iii) This expectional behaviour which water shows between `0^(@)C` to `4^(@)C` it contracts instead of expanding . since volume at `4^(@)C` is minimum, hence , density is maximum.
