When water is heated from `0^(@)C` to `10^(@)C` , its volume

A

Decreases steadily

B

First increases then decreases

C

First decreases then increases

D

Increases steadily

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Melting of ice will decrease its density and so there will be expansion in its volume. On freezing, density increases and the volume decreases. So when ice is heated from 0 degree Celsius to 10 degree Celsius, its volume increases first, then decreases.
