Density is the mass of compound divided by its volume can be shown as follows:
[tex]d = 0.5 g /mL = m /V = m /40 = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]m = 20 g[/tex]
40 mL of snow having 20 g of mass calculated from density.
Now, 10 cm of snow = 3.93 inches = 20 g
As, 10 inches of rain will produce 11 inches of ice as the volume of ice is bigger than rain water.
10 inches rain = 11 inches snow
3.93 inches of snow produced by
[tex]= (3.93 * 10) /11 = 3.57 inches rain.[/tex]
Thus, 3.57 incehs of rain produces by 10 cm snow.
