Thermal conductivity: 6.4 W/mK

Specific heat capacity: 0.98 J/gK

Density: 2,980 kg/m³

Flexural strength along the grain: 16.8 MN/m²

Flexural strength perpendicular to the grain: 15.7 MN/m²

EDIT: To whoever was ignorant enough to not understand the question and idiotic enough to post the above reply, the asker is probably trying to determine if whiskey stones are worth buying.

Soapstone:

980J/kg-degK

2980kg/m^3

Going from -5degC to 15degC, it provides less than 16% the cooling the same volume of ice would. The majority of cooling provided from ice is energy absorbed when changing phase from solid to liquid. Soapstone is actually 1.5 times as effective at cooling as ice if the ice didn't melt, it just can't compete with the cooling from melting.
