Ideas in this flowchart
- Why does ice float on water?
- Ice is less dense than water
- Why is ice less dense?
- Water molecules form hydrogen bonds
- Open crystal structure
- Molecules farther apart
- Volume increases, mass stays the same
- Density decreases
- Student remembers: Ice floats because it's less dense
- Student missed: Explanation of density
