an ice cube of edge 1cmmelts in a gravity free container. the approximate surface area of water formed is..??

Dear Student, 
Please find below the solution to the asked query: 

The water in this case will assume spherical shape. Thus,
Vcube = Vsphere

13 = 43πR3R = 34π13Thus,surface area = 4πR2SA =4π× 34π23SA = (36π)13 =4.8359 cm2
