The density of ice is x g cm^(-3) and that of water is y g cm^(-3). What is the change in volume when m gram of ice melts ?

Answer»

`m ( y-x) c.c`.
`(y-x)/m c.c.`
`m XY (x-y) c.c`.
`m(1/y-1/x)c.c.`

Solution :Vol. of m GRAM of ice =`m/x`c.c
Vol. of m gram WATER FORMED`=m/yc.c`
CHANGE in vol. on melting =`(m/y-m/x)`
`=m(1/y-1/x)`c.c.
Correct choice is (d).
