dont try to be clever, he said it was frozen solid, it never said in the FML that it wasnt water.

yes but frozen water weighs the exact same as liquid form...a gallon of water is a gallon of water...it doesn't magically double weight or something. the guy was a dumbass regardless.

*Science lesson* Water, like any other material, expands and contracts with temperature changes. A gallon is a unit of volume, but two one-gallon jugs of water could have differing weights. A warm one would generally weigh less, as the molecules are more spaced apart and therefore fewer would fit in your gallon container. Think of a gallon of ice and a gallon of steam (water in gas form). The steam woul be a lot lighter. Incidentally, water is strange as its density is highest at 4`C (at that point you gallon is heaviest). *class dismissed*

*Science Lesson* Water expands when frozen, unlike most materials. For that reason, it would way more in liquid form as the molecules are packed tighter.

Science lesson: Scenario: You have a gallon jug of water sealed in a container where no water escapes or is added. It weighs x pounds. You freeze it... it still weighs x pounds. You boil it until its all in the gas phase.... it still weighs x pounds (assuming the container doesn't burst from the pressure). Changing the state of the molecules does not change the number of molecules, and therefore it doesn't change the weight. If you bought a 1 gallon jug of water vapour (at standard temperature and pressure), sure it would weigh a different amount than both a 1 gallon jug of ice and 1 gallon jug of water. But you bought a 1 gallon jug of water, "then" changed its phase. The amount of material inside will be the same in all cases.

YDI Because you tried kicking a gallon of water? You could just as easily mess yourself up from that, you tard... Just go headbutt a brick wall. See how far you can make it go.

True, but Ice is a hell of a lot harder than water. At least if it was liquid it would have cushioned the blow.

I don't know what "class" or "lesson" you heard that in...just to give you a correct lesson, here's a stupid-proof link: http://antoine.frostburg.edu/chem/senese/101/measurement/faq/does-ice-weigh-more-than-water.shtml

I'll say...especially if the idiot decided to kick the jug at the base, it would have flipped back and they would have spilled a gallon of water on themselves....
