BOILING POINT AND MELTING POINT OF WATER
1ºESO: January 18th, 2008

We heated some water until it started to boil. We wrote down the temperatures every thirty seconds...


We put 80 mililitres of water inside the freezer and when it became solid its volume was 90 mililitres. So solid water occupies more volume than liquid water. We found out that water melting point is 0 degrees Celsius but the temperatures went down when we spilt some salt on the ice cubes.
