What are the properties would a material need in order to be a better coolant than ice?

The criterion "better" is not well defined. A coolant can cool faster, or to a lower temperature, or be more affordable or less toxic than another coolant, or more environmentally friendly. Freon is better than ammonia by some criteria, and worse by others (it is less toxic, but more environmentally harmful). Liquid nitrogen cools things faster and to a lower temperature than ice does, but you might not want to put it in your drink (which would immediately freeze and become undrinkable). Water frozen into ice is a perfect coolant for some purposes, such as keeping my glass of ice tea cold. I would use no other coolant for that purpose.

What properties would a material need in order to be a better coolant than ice?
It would need a higher specific heat capacity and/or a higher latent heat of fusion. This ensures that more thermal energy is absorbed before it can no longer wick away thermal energy from the system.
Can you tell the chemical properties of a can by looking at a picture whether it is a tin can aluminum can or a crushed can?
No. In order to tell what the chemical properties of the crushed can would be, you would have to have it in person in order to analyze it and come up with the chemical properties.
What is an example of order from the properties of life?
Pinecone
Which crystals most likely formed from molten material that cooled and solidified most rapidly?
If a substance is cooled and solidified rapidly, generally amorphous material is obtained instead of crystals. In order to obtain good quality crystals, if is better that the substance solidifies slowly

How many sets of properties do you need to observe in order to classify a material as a heterogeneous mixture?
You need several different properties in order to classify a material as a heterogeneous mixture.
What can I do to better maintain my heating and cooling system?
You cooling system requires coolant in order to keep working properly, if you are wondering why your room is still hot even though you have the AC on; it is because your air conditioner is out of coolant. Just call your local heating and cooling specialist.

Is coolant fluid supposed to come out when you change the coolant temperature sensor?
this is normal,because the coolant temp sensor is supposed to be in direct contact with the cooling fluid in order to read its temperature

What is isotropic material explain with example?
An isotropic material is one which looks the same in every direction. We cannot define any special direction using the material properties. In other words, none of the properties depend the orientation; it is perfectly rotationally symmetric. Note that in order to be isotropic the material must be homogenous on the length scale of interest, ie the same at every point in the material. For instance, rubber is a very isotropic material. Take a rubber ball, and it will feel the same and bounce the same however you rotate it. On the other hand, wood is an anisotropic material: hit it with an axe and it will take more force to break of you are cutting across the grain than along it. (Remember we're thinking about the material rather than the shape of the object.)
Why is rubber treated?
In order to improve its elastic properties
Coolant loss Any Expert advice?
Coolant loss out of what? Car, home air conditioner? Please add additional details in order to receive an answer.
What was the most international order of knight during the crusads?
I belive are the Hospitallers, they had properties in quite all of Europe after they "inherit" templars properties, and their order was made before the templars.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of mile-inch-deep curriculum?
The advantages are that students are learning more material in order to be better prepared and more educated. Disadvantages are that there is more material to cover in the same amount of time and students may fall behind.
