It will be exactly the same -- soft drinks are mostly water. The ice cube floats in water, displacing exactly the same mass of water (and thus volume of water) as it will become when completely melted.

The overall volume will be less, because a mass of ice has 9% more volume than an equivalent mass of water (if you are really precise, and measure the volume of the ice cubes along with the volume of the drink, instead of just measuring the level of the liquid in the container). When the ice melts, however, the level of the beverage in its container will rise (the part of the ice that was floating above the level of the liquid will now be liquid, and will raise the level of the liquid).
P.S. This is what they are saying will happen with the oceans when the polar ice caps melt because of global warming.

It will be less. The density of ice is less than 1.0 g/ml which is the density of the water. While the soda is basically a dilute solution of carbonic acid (carbon dioxide in water) the density is still very close to 1.0 g/ml). When the ice melts the temperature rises which drives out most of the carbon dioxide (gases are less soluble at higher temperatures) leaving a fluid which is even more water-like. So since ice loses volume when it melts the overall volume of the system becomes smaller.

The ice in the drink will occupy a larger volume when it is frozen than when it is a liquid. Therefore, when the ice melts, the resulting addition of volume from the liquid water will be less that the ice. Hence, the volume of your drink will decrease slightly.

The volume will be greater because when ice melts it turns into water. So it'll be like you've added water to your soft drink.
The volume doesnt change when the ice is still solid bcoz ice floats but once it melts...the volume'll increase

The volume would decrease when the ice melts as water is denser than ice so the molecules would be closer together.

The soft drinks volume will stay the same . No matter what happens to the water.

you will would desire to devour a brilliant style of ice to equivalent 8 glasses of water. A pound of ice melts to easily below 2 glasses, so which you will would desire to devour 4 or 5 pounds of ice (this is extra useful than a million/2 a bag!) to get your fill. Like rock and sand, ice is a mineral. Your enamel are made out of mineral, too. whilst 2 in assessment to minerals forcefully are available touch with one yet another, the softer mineral scratches or breaks (you could scratch a chew of glass with diamond, yet you won't be able to with a fingernail). possibilities are high honest the ice is the two tense as a enamel; and with repeated chewing, you will desire to injury your enamel. attempt including the juice of a lemon or a lime (yet no sugar!) to three ice-chilly water. i come across i will drink extra of this flavored water than the undeniable stuff.

Only 2 correct answers out of 6. How ignorant people are!
And one actually wrote that ice is heavier than water! I guess that's why ice sinks to the bottom of the glass.
The End is near!!

less- the volume of H2O is greater as ice and less as water
