(d) -8 ° C
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. The mass of any substance while heating remains the same however its volume increases. Thus, its density decreases. But water exhibits an anomalous expansion on cooling and contraction on heating within a specific range of temperature. When water at 0°C is heated, it is observed that it contracts between 0°C to 4°C, i.e. volume decreases and thus density increases. The volume of water is minimum at 4°C. Hence the density of water is maximum at 4°C.

Q13. While floating in a sea what is an iceberg is the surface of the sea? 
Which part of a iceberg is floating above sea level while swimming in a sea? 
(a) 1/9 
(b) 1/10 
(c) 1/6 
(d) 1/4
Show Answer
Ans.(b)
Sol. When pure water changes into the ice at 4°C, the density of ice so formed is 1/9th of the density of water. Therefore, in pure water, 90% part of the ice must be below the surface of the water and remaining 10% part must be above the surface, Sea water has high density (salty) water but the ice formed by it is pure and not salty.

Q14. Why is it easy to swim in the sea than in a river? 
Why is it easier to swim in the sea than a river? 
(a) The sea water is salty / sea water is salted 
(b) The sea water is deep / sea water is deep 
(c) The sea water is heavy / sea water is heavy 
(d) The sea water is lighter / Sea water is light
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. It is easier to swim in sea water than in river because, the sea water contains salt which increases the density of water and also increases its upthrust so, the chances of sinking get reduced and one can easily swim in such water.


Q15. When a ship enters a sea from a river, what happens? 
What happens when a ship enters the sea from the river? 
(a) It rises a little / She comes to a slightly higher level. 
(b) It remains at the same level / its level remains the same. 
(c) It sinks a little / its level gets reduced slightly. 
(d) It is immersed in the sea completely.
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. When a ship enters a sea from a river, the ship is elevated due to the higher density of salty sea water than the river.
