Sulfur dioxide is compartively non ideal at 273K but behaves ideally at 327C.Explain it?

increasing the temperature increases the intermolecular spaces and decreases the intermolecular forces,thus increasing ideality.... so at high temperature of 327c sulphurdioxide is ideal as compared to 273k

Why is ice at 273k more effective in cooling than the water at the same temperature?

Water changes to ice at 0 degree C.In this change,heat is released so as to gain the suitable temperature for freezing.While in case of ice changing into water,the water releases the chillness so as to be a liquid.So, ice at 273K is more effective than water at the same temperature.
