Best Answer

The white stuff is actually the impurities frozen in the water. Pure water freezes clear. Simply, air inside the liquid water becomes visible as water freezes. As water freezes, the bonds between the water molecules strengthen, causing the ice to harden. Tiny natural air bubbles found in tap water begin to be pressed together by the crystalization of the freezing water. Just as tiny water specks in the sky form clouds, tiny air specks in ice makes it cloudy.

How do you replace the rear cup holder of my grand Cherokee?

The rear seat drink holder of a 2005 grand cheokee is very easy to replace. In mine only the sliding insert was broken. First buy the replacement part. Then look at it closely. The drink holder is two pieces. The outer part inserts into the rear seat and is not usually broken can be reused. The inside part that slides and hold drinks is what breaks and is easy to replace. Look at the new part you bought. Slide the inside drink tray halfway out of the outer casing. Get two hacksaw blades and bend the last two inches up about 10 degrees. The sliding tray has to be 1/2 way extended out for this to work. Slide the hacksaw blades with the 10 degrees bend facing up in along the top of the inside drink tray about 1/2 from the outside edges. The hacksaw blades will go above the plastic sliding tray stops and when you pull the tray out the inside part will come out. The new unbroken sliding tray can be slid into place very easy and will lock in perfect. If you have the hacksaw blades it will take about 60 seconds. I just replaced mine. The auto repair place wanted $90.00 for labor because they were going to remove rear seat and replace the whole unit. This way is super easy. Looking over the new part will show you how this works.

Are ovens supplied with a roasting tray, or is this something I need to buy separately?

Most models of ovens do not come with a roasting tray. It is a bakeware that you would need to purchase separately. Ovens do, however, come with roasting racks that allow you to place the roasting tray on.
