  2. Ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice

    The density of ice is 0.9167 –0.9168 g/cm 3 at 0 °C and standard atmospheric pressure (101,325 Pa), whereas water has a density of 0.9998 –0.999863 g/cm 3 at the same temperature and pressure. Liquid water is densest, essentially 1.00 g/cm 3 , at 4 °C and begins to lose its density as the water molecules begin to form the hexagonal ...

  3. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    Density ( volumetric mass density or specific mass) is a substance's mass per unit of volume. The symbol most often used for density is ρ (the lower case Greek letter rho ), although the Latin letter D can also be used. Mathematically, density is defined as mass divided by volume: [1] where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume ...

  4. Magma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma

    The temperature at which the first melt appears (the solidus) is lower than the melting temperature of any one of the pure minerals. This is similar to the lowering of the melting point of ice when it is mixed with salt. The first melt is called the eutectic and has a composition that depends on the combination of minerals present.

  5. High-density polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-density_polyethylene

    High-density polyethylene. HDPE has SPI resin ID code 2. High-density polyethylene ( HDPE) or polyethylene high-density ( PEHD) is a thermoplastic polymer produced from the monomer ethylene. It is sometimes called "alkathene" or " polythene " when used for HDPE pipes. [1] With a high strength-to-density ratio, HDPE is used in the production of ...

  6. Snow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow

    Over the course of time, a snowpack may settle under its own weight until its density is approximately 30% of water. Increases in density above this initial compression occur primarily by melting and refreezing, caused by temperatures above freezing or by direct solar radiation. In colder climates, snow lies on the ground all winter.

  7. Melting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting

    Melting, or fusion, is a physical process that results in the phase transition of a substance from a solid to a liquid. This occurs when the internal energy of the solid increases, typically by the application of heat or pressure, which increases the substance's temperature to the melting point. At the melting point, the ordering of ions or ...

  8. Zinc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc

    Zinc is a chemical element; it has symbol Zn and atomic number 30. It is a soft, but slightly brittle metal at room temperature and has a shiny-greyish appearance when oxidation is removed. It is the first element in group 12 (IIB) of the periodic table.

  9. Dry ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_ice

    The density of dry ice increases with decreasing temperature and ranges between about 1.55 and 1.7 g/cm 3 (97 and 106 lb/cu ft) below 195 K (−78 °C; −109 °F). The low temperature and direct sublimation to a gas makes dry ice an effective coolant, since it is colder than water ice and leaves no residue as it changes state.
