    First of all, without considering the temperature, the snowflakes will definitely float on the surface of the water, because the snowflakes are flake-shaped, and the parallel contact with the water will be dragged up by the water, and the snowflakes are definitely lighter than the water, so they will float.

    But when you consider the temperature, you can't see that the snowflakes will float up in the water, because if you go to catch the snowflakes or the hand or object that holds the snowflakes, once the temperature is higher than the snowflakes, the snowflakes will melt.

    In addition, even if you catch the hand or object of the snowflake, it is cooler than the snowflake and does not melt, but the water temperature is higher than the snowflake, then the snowflake will melt when it comes into contact with water, so considering the temperature, you will not have a chance to see the snowflake floating on the surface of the water.

    Hello! Snowflakes will float when placed in water, but they will melt instantly, and will melt faster if they are placed in hot water.

    Snowflakes are less dense than water, so they float, but because snow melts when it falls into water, this phenomenon lasts for a few seconds.

    Snowflakes don't float in the water, there are a lot of gaps in the snowflakes, and these gaps are all air, you put it. If the flakes are placed in the water, the water will fill the entire snowflake through the gaps. Then the weight of the snowflake will increase, the weight ratio is greater than, the buoyancy ratio.

    So it snowflakes will sink and won't float.

    Yes. Because snowflakes are also a type of ice, the density of ice is less than that of water, so ice floats on water. However, snowflakes are very thin and usually melt quickly when exposed to water, and it is generally difficult for us to observe snowflakes floating on the water.

    Of course it will float up, and the mass of the disease is less than the mass of the water. So the ice floats on the water, and the snow is the same as ice. So, the snowflakes will float when placed in the water!

    Snowflakes are not hexagonal, they just look hexagonal, and because ice is less dense than water, they float on the surface of the water.

    No, the flakes are heavier.

    It depends on what temperature it is, it should float for a short time and then melt, hope

    Yes, the snowflakes are plastic.

    It melts when it comes to water because the temperature of the water is higher than that of the snow.

    There are snowflakes floating on the boiling water, and it is best not to drink it. The layer of snow and old flower-like floats formed in the process of boiling water is actually mineral salt, which is easy to damage the kidneys after eating, resulting in the occurrence of kidney stones, so try not to drink these white floaters.

    The drift on the surface of the boiling water is also commonly known as scale, which is composed of calcium ions and magnesium ions, which may have an impact on the human body. If there are white floaters when drinking water, it is safer to filter these white floats with a small filter paper.

    Scale is also known as rust, water alkali, under normal circumstances, the water with higher hardness will produce scale after boiling, after the water is boiled, the scale will adhere to the container of boiling water, and will also float on the water surface, it should be cleaned regularly, if the container is not cleaned for a long time, it will accumulate a thick layer of scale.

    In the process of boiling water, the scale will affect the thermal conductivity of the container, if the scale is too thick, it will prolong the boiling time, and it will cause **. In daily life, we need to clean the scale in the container in time.

The newly laid egg has small voids and very little air, and its specific gravity is greater than that of water, so it will sink to the bottom.

Clouds on Earth are multi-degree clouds that refer to the aggregates of water droplets or ice crystal colloids that remain in the atmosphere. Clouds are the tangible result of the vast water cycle on Earth. When the sun shines on the Earth's surface, the water evaporates to form water vapor, and once the water vapor is supersaturated, water molecules collect around the dust (condensation nuclei) in the air, and the resulting water droplets or ice crystals scatter sunlight in all directions, which gives the appearance of clouds. >>>More
