Solution
(a) Take some marbles and put them into the water of a glass tumbler one by one. After some time you will notice that the water level crosses the mark and rises. This is because the marbles occupy space. Again weigh the glass with the marbles. You will find that the second mass is greater than the first one. This proves that marbles have mass and occupies space.
(b) Ice when kept at room temperature again changes back into liquid water.
