Yuki has a bowl of ice. She places the ice in a warm room and watches as it melts into liquid water. Yuki then places the liquid water over a Bunsen burner and heats it until it vaporizes. Explain what happens to the water molecules in Yuki's experiment; from the beginning to the end of the experiment.

Answer:

ice is a solid.When heat is added it turns into a liquid,its a reversible change.As regarding to the water moleculesWhen water is heated, it expands, or increases in volume. When water increases in volume, it becomes less dense. As water cools, it contracts and decreases in volume. When water decreases in volume, it becomes more dense. For samples of water that have the same mass, warmer water is less dense and colder water is more dense.Im not sure if this helps but try it out :)
