Suppose your laboratory partner tells you the density of water at 20 celsius is 0.99910 g/cm(cubic). Is this a reasonable number? Why or why not?

Water is at it's maximum density (1) at 4 degrees celsius . It is reasonable that the density would increase sightly at a modestly higher temperature of 20 degrees celsius.
