When ice melts, which is technically known as a change of phase (from solid to liquid), that requires energy, so heat added to ice does not raise the temperature of the ice until after the ice has melted into water. Ice therefore is a way of effectively storing coldness.

Water as ice has a cooling effect?

Yes, it is true.


Does ice have more cooling effect or cold water?

Most people would say ice, because it's colder, but I say neither is. Ice is just frozen water (which is a physical change), therefore, neither is better than the other.


Why cooling effect of ice at 0 degree Celsius is more than same amount of water at 0 degree Celsius?

Water at 0 oC is ice.


How does ice cool?

Water have a very high heat capacity and that mean water can contain a lot of heat which resulted in the cooling effect. Remember ice is water in solid form.


What water as ice has a cooling effect whereas water as steam may cause severe burns explain these observations?

This depends on the temperature.


Water as ice has cooling effect whereas water as steam causes severe burnsExplain these observations?

Because a great difference of temperatures exist !


Why do polar ice caps have a cooling effect on the planet?

because they're ice..


If you are standing on a wet floor and when the water evaporates it produces a cooling effect How does the kinetic theory explain the cooling effect?

When water evaporates, it draws a lot of energy called latent heat of vapourization. It is this demand for energy from evaporating water that causes a cooling effect as it absorbs heat energy from its surroundings.


How does melting of ice produce cooling effect?

because it is an endothermic reaction.


Do you know some Physical change exapmples?

Why the surface of ice raises when it changes from water into ice?

water contracts when cooling until about 4 deg. C. From that temp. further cooling causes the water to expand. as it freezes it continues to expand, that is why ice floats.


Which process will involve the most cooling?

liquid water into ice.
