Not by itself no, you need other things to make crystals. Here are the steps...

  1. Get a cup of water (I don't think it matters what temp. Just to be safe do room temperature I would say.
  2. Get a string and a pencil
  3. Tie the string to the pencil (Make sure the string is covered in salt,)
  4. Leave it there for 2-3 weeks. You should have a crystal.

If not, sorry to say it you did something wrong. Bye! Luck making your crystal!

Hot water allows you to dissolve more solute. This is necessary to make a supersaturated solution, whereby you dissolve more solute than can be dissolved in water at room temperature. When the solution cools, crystals precipitate out of solution.

Witch freeze faster cold water or hot water?

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.


What happens when the cold and hot water pipes are reversed on the hot water tank?

You will get warm instead of hot water. There is a tube inside the tank on the cold side that goes to the bottom of the tank and the hot comes directly from the top. Reverse them and you are going to get the cold water that settles to the bottom of the tank. It will not hurt the tank or anything, it just makes for poor hot water.
