Question

Clara wants to determine the volume of an ice cube. She places the cube into a

graduated cylinder and waits for it to melt. Is this an accurate way of determining the
volume of the ice cube?

Answer 1

Not!

Volume = m/d

Explanation:

It is just Volume = m/d

where

m is the mass of the ice cube and

d is the density of water.

In the second state, where the ice has melted, it turns into water of volume....

Volume = m/d! exactly the same volume as it displaced before.
