Ice and water are identical in mass. (However, they have different densities and thus are different by volume, but we are not concerned with any volumes of ice so ignore this fact.)

Density of water = 1.0 g/mL 1 lb = 16 oz

16 oz (28 g/oz) = 448 g 448 g (1 mL / 1 g) = 448 mL

448 mL (0.033814 fl oz./mL) = 15.15 fl oz.

1 pound of ice/water is slightly less than 1 pint of water.

The voluime of one pound of water is 27.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth) cubic inches. Now the weight of water does not change after freezing; however, water has an expansion rate of 4% when frozen. Therefore, one pound of ice has a volume of 28.8 (rounded to the nearest tenth) cubic inches.

How much water does a 1 pound fish displace?

It displaces 1 pound of water in terms of its mass, if you were to convert to volume, it is a simple conversion with any mass, water has a density of 1 meaning that 1kg of water takes up 1 litre of volume, so, a 1 pound fish roughly displaces 455mL of water.


How many btu's are required to change 1 pound of water to 1 pound of ice?

Depends on the temperature of the water. If it is 32 degree water and you want 32 degree ice then you need a -144 BTU loss to change state from liquid to solid. It takes 1 BTU to raise the temperature of 1 pound of water 1 degree (F). If the water is 82 degrees then you would need a -50 BTU loss (+) 144 BTU to change state. TOTAL WEIGHT OF WATER (X) 1 BTU (X) Degrees desired of change. If it is ICE to WATER then it is the TEMP of ICE (X) .5 BTU (X) NUMBER OF DEGREES INCREASED = TOTAL BTU needs. If you change state in the process you have to add 144 BTU for 32 degree ICE to 32 degree WATER and 970 BTU for 212 degree WATER to 212 degree STEAM but only when you change state.

What is the latent heat of ice?

A BTU is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of liquid water by one degree Fahrenheit. Melting a pound of ice at 32 °F requires 143 BTU. As is the case with the calorie, several different definitions of the BTU exist, which are based on different water temperatures and therefore vary by up to 0.5%:

Is ice heavier than water?

Ice is lighter than water. That is why it floats on water.The term "lighter" is confusing here. A pound of water will still freeze into a pound of ice. However, the the pound of ice is less dense than the pound of water, so it floats. This gives the impression that a pound of ice is lighter than a pound of water. Well really, it depends on the quantity of both ice and water. However lets say if you had 1 kilogram of ice and 1 kilogram of water. The ice would weigh more because the particles are pulled together more and they're no longer liquid (physically) and the ice would be bigger and heavier (obviously) .


If one pound of water is at a temperature of 32 degrees Fahrenheit, how many BTU’s must be removed in order to create a block of ice at 17 degrees?

LATENT HEAT OF FUSION When one pound of ice melts, it absorbs 144 BTUs at a constant temperature of 32°F. If one pound of water is to be frozen into ice, 144 BTUs must be removed from the water at a constant temperature of 32°F.

Any amount of water can make an ice cube. It's not the amount that determines if water will become ice, it is the temperature. The water just needs to be at a temperature of 0oC or lower, and it will become ice.

If you drink one pound of water and pee it out do you lose a pound?

Your output would equal your intake so there would be no net change in body weight.If you drink ice cold water, your body will burn some calories as it warms the water up to body temperature. You would burn 175 calories if you drink one liter of ice water.3500 calories equal one pound. So if you were to drink 20 liters of ice water, you would lose 1 pound.
