Options:
  • A \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \)
  • B < \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \)
  • C > \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \)
  • D \( 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \)

The correct answer is: \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \)
The anomalous expansion of water is a special property of water where on raising the temperature water contract
instead of expanding. In anomalous expansion of water, the density of water is maximum at \( 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \).
