The specific volume of water when heated from 0°C

The specific volume of water when heated from 0°C Correct Answer First decreases and then increase

The density of water is maximum at 4°C therefore the specific volume of water is minimum at 4°C. So when water is heated at 0°C the density of water increases and as a result the specific volume of water decreases and reaches the minimum. Afterwards the specific volume of water increases once the temperature exceeds 4°C.
