Why is there smoke on the top of an ice tray immediately taken from a freezer?

What you see is not smoke; it is mist. When you pull the ice cube tray out, a bit of air from the freezer comes with it. This air chills the room temperature air to below freezing, causing the moisture in it to form microscopic ice crystals.

When ice cube slowly vanish from tray is the example of?
When an ice cube slowly disappears from the ice tray in the freezer, that is sublimation. The solid water (ice) is turning directly to the gas state (water vapor)- it skips over the liquid phase.
Why your finger sticks to a metal ice tray just taken from the refrigerator?
This is a matter of melting and freezing. When you touch the tray, the warmth from your finger quickly melts a bit of a ice and creates a thin layer of water between the tray and your finger. Since the tray is so cold, it quickly freezes that thing layer of water forming an icy bond between your finger and the tray.
What happens when a liquid transforms into solid form it freezes or it melts?
If a liquid changes into a solid it freezes. When you place an ice cube tray with liquid water into the freezer, it will turn into a solid we call ice. If you take that solid ice out of the freezer and leave it on the counter, it will melt into a liquid once again.

How does hot water freeze faster than cold water?
Think about it this way... If you start out with hot water, it has to cool its freezing temperature before it will freeze. Somewhere along the process it will become the same temperature as "cold" water - whatever temperature you choose to define as "cold". It takes time to reach that "cold" temperature and from the point that it becomes cold until it freezes should be the same as it was for water that started out "cold". All else being equal, cold water will freeze faster than hot water. Notice that I said "all else being equal". There are situations where water that starts out hot may freeze faster than the cold water. As an example - if you fill two ice trays with water - one with cold water and one with hot - and stick them into the freezer, the hot tray will start melting any frost or ice it is placed on. As it does so, it provides better contact with a cold surface that will act as a heat sink as it cools down. Having formed this better contact, it will begin to cool through both conductive and convective heat transfer. The tray that started out cold but which has poor thermal contact with its surroundings mainly cools by convection. Because conductive heat transfer is usually faster than convective heat transfer, the initially hot tray may catch up to the temperature of the initially cold tray and then continue to cool faster because of the boost from conductive heat transfer. Notice that the conditions have to be right for this to occur - the hot tray has to be warm enough to do the melting and establish the good surface-to-surface contact for the conductive heat transfer; there has to be frost or ice for it to be melting, the cold tray can't be too cold or it will start freezing before the hot tray catches up; likewise, the hot tray can't be too hot or it won't catch up to the cold tray; the freezer can't have too much forced convection (fan blowing in the freezer) but rather be primarily natural convection; the cold tray can't be warm enough to melt the ice or frost like the hot tray.
Why there is smoke on top of an ice tray immediately taken from a freezer?
It's vapor, not smoke. To be maintained as a solid, water must be kept at a freezing temperature. When the ice tray is taken out, it gets immediately exposed to the much warmer ambient air. The heat from the ambient air transfers to the ice, and causes the top layer to undergo a rapid change of state - the most immediate change of state is a vapor form.

A metal ice-cube tray and a plastic tub of ice cream are sitting in the freezer. Why does the ice-cube tray feel colder to touch than the tub of ice cream?
The answer is D. The metal ice-cube tray has a higher conductivity.

Can you freeze fresh raspberrys?
YES, place them individually (not in a heap) on a cookie tray to freeze them, then place in a bag when hard, put bag back in the freezer.

Where in antarctica is ice cube?
If you really wanted to limit your search to an ice cube in Antarctica, you could look in a research station freezer, in the ice cube tray.
I need to get a smoke eater ash tray for my relative. Where can I find one in Chicago?
I could not locate a smoke eater retailer in Chicago. I did locate a website with plenty of comparison information about smoke eaters and helpful advice on buying them: www.smokeeaters.org
