Cold water will freeze faster.
Because the freezing point of water is 0oC, water that is closer to that point will freeze faster then hot water. This is because it will require less time to lower the temperature to the freezing point.
Cold water freezes faster, but if water is boiled and allowed to cool to the same temperature as cold water, the water that was boiled will freeze faster due to the absence of air bubbles in the water.
i think that cold water freezes faster than hot water cause the particle in cold water are already cold so all the freezer have to do let the air come down and around the cup than it will freeze faster. <-----incorrect
The right answer: hot water freezes faster coz the temp drops faster so when it gets to the cold water temp is it still freezes faster
Hot freezes faster. Doesn't sound like it makes sense does it? But it is one of those things.

Usually not, but it is known that in some very special cases, hot water freezes faster.
I believe hot water freezes faster because it is supercooled. Cold water is non-supercooled. When cold water freezes ice crystals form and float to the top, forming a layer of ice over the top of the water, so the layer of ice stops evaporation . While the hot water, which is probably no longer hot in the freezer,when it does freeze, it freezes throughout, creating more or less of a slush before freezing solid.
Warm water doesnt actually freeze faster. Distilled water (which you can get from boiling and collecting the steam) freezes at 0C or 32F. Water (such as tap water) with impurities will only freeze at a lower temperature.
its based on what kind of jar it is in and and if u put the same amount of hot or cold water in it
Cold air and hot water makes water freeze faster simply because the hot water is steaming and so the result is that there is less water to freeze. hot water = steam = less water less water = faster freeze cold air = faster freeze
It has been proven that hot water freezes faster than cold water.
Hot Water
The process of water freezing into ice involves the temperature of water being lowered to 32 degrees Celsius. Hot water will take longer to freeze because the difference between the temperature of hot water and 32 degrees is greater than the temperature of cold water and 32 degrees.
Cold water freezes faster because hot water has to cool down to the freezing temperature before it can freeze.

If you mean, compared with cold water, it doesn't. Hot water has to cool down first, before it freezes.
Isn't cold water already cold? I would say cold water gets cold first. I've heard that hot water freezes faster than cold water.
Cold water. It doesn't have to cool as much as hot water does, thus it freezes faster. Under VERY specific labratory conditions, it can be made possible to have warmer water freeze faster, however, these conditions will not be present when you fill your ice tray. If you want ice, use cold water.
cold liquids
It freezes faster when it's hot, because the water precipitation makes the volume the water takes up less, thus allowing it to freeze faster. -Zero (Black ops user)
