What is the temperature of maximum density of water?

Answer 1

Short Answer:

Water reaches it maximum density at 3.98 °C (39.16 °F).

The density of ice 0.9168 g/cm3 at 0 °C .

The density of water, 0.99984 g/cm3 at 0 °C and 0.99997 g/cm3 at 4 °C.

Explanation:

Water gets more dense as it cools until it reaches 4 degrees C. At that point, because water molecules (and the forces between them) are not spherical, they begin to exhibit a tendency to hold particular orientations at preferred separation distances that keep them further apart than was possible above 4 C. Cooling from 4 C towards 0 C removes more kinetic energy allowing the preferred orientations and separations to become more orderly, further decreasing density. At freezing, 0 C, the nonspherical forces between molecules lock them into the preferential orientations and separations of the ice crystal arrangement with a sharp increase in average separation and decrease in bulk density.
Water is at its greatest density at 3.98 degrees Centigrade
Water is at its maximum density at 4 oC.

Answer 2

The temperature of maximum density of water is approximately 4 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, water is most dense, which means it has the highest mass per unit volume. This property is important for aquatic ecosystems as it helps regulate the movement of water and nutrients in lakes and oceans.

Answer 3

Water reaches it maximum density at 3.98 °C (39.16 °F).

The density of ice 0.9168 g/cm3 at 0 °C .

The density of water, 0.99984 g/cm3 at 0 °C and 0.99997 g/cm3 at 4 °C.

Answer 4

0,9999749 g/mL at standard pressure (101325 Pa) and at a temperature of 3°C or 4°C.
