because I'm not feeling well, I'm going to just leave this up to chembook.. and trust that Sb IS less dense as a solid than a liquid at the phase change temperature.

Fixed your post. I did not mean to diss your knowledge of chemistry with the earlier discourse. I just wanted folk to know that water isn't the only thing that expands upon turning solid.

I suppose I SHOULD ask a question.

Ok, boring question....
Why is water the only substance that expands as it cools and changes to ice?

Note: I have asked this question many times but have yet to receive an answer that makes sense.

2nd note: I have no wish to make out.

Simple, you make it into little bullets and sell them to gun shops across the country for lots and lots of money. I can't believe ChemGirl didn't get that one.

Fryer? Those are hard on the waistline.

It's getting closer to the end of the day and I'm thinking I might enjoy a beer and a sandwich since I have to go out, anyway.
