Take a block of ice in a 20 cm<3 of beaker.heat it.what is the change observed.continue heating till water begins to boil.observe that water level decreases.what can we conclude ???

Solution

When ice block starts to heat, it melts and turns to completely water and hence volume will increase than 20 cm³. As we continue heating it vaporises and vapour get escaped from the vessel , so volume decreases
