Water is heated from \( 0^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) to \( 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \). then its volume
- A decreases
- B increases
- C does not change
- D first decreases and then increases
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) first decreases and then increases
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
When water is heated from \( 0^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) to \( 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \), then its volume first decreases and then increases
The volume of water will decrease as it is heated from \( 0^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) to \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \). Then the volume of water will increase as it is further
heated from \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) to \( 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \).

The volume of water will decrease as it is heated from \( 0^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) to \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \). Then the volume of water will increase as it is further
heated from \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) to \( 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \).
