Because you insisted that the container be unbreakable (and, I presume, won expand either), I won go into detail on just how much pressure water exerts during its expansion while freezing. Just recall that ice can break steel ship hulls with no problem.
Because you insisted that the container be unbreakable (and, I presume, won’t expand either), I won’t go into detail on just how much pressure water exerts during its expansion while freezing. Just recall that ice can break steel ship hulls with no problem. Nevertheless, ice can form under pressure, and can undergo some compression in its solid state. So I suppose the water would form ice of higher density than normal.
