In a question brought up by my chemistry class, the most we have determined is that the stability of most forms of ice decreases as the temperature decreases. What does this loss of stability do to the density of the ice (secondary question)?

  • $\begingroup$ Saying these are related is a bit of a stretch. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 16, 2015 at 2:35
  • $\begingroup$ Both those posts discuss the density of water & ice, no? How is that not related to your title question? (which you appear to imply is your initial question, given the label to the only question in the body as a "secondary question"). $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ We have already established these facts in class, perhaps I can call them "contextual information"... $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 16, 2015 at 3:25
  • $\begingroup$ ...how is contextual information different from related? $\endgroup$
