What will happen if you put 3 ice cubes in a plastic cup for 10 minutes and then for the other 10 minutes you put the 3 ice cubes in a paper cup?

The ice cubes will melt at a relatively equal rate in both the plastic and paper cup. The paper cup may allow for slightly more heat transfer due to its thinner material, but the difference in melting time should be minimal. Both cups will have water from the melted ice cubes after 20 minutes.


Suppose you put equal amounts of saltwater and pure water into separate ice cube trays of the same size and shape When you put both trays in the freezer what do you expect to happen and why?

The ice cube tray with pure water will freeze first because salt lowers the freezing point of water, requiring more time for the saltwater to freeze. Additionally, the ice cubes from the saltwater tray will be slightly smaller and will melt at a lower temperature compared to pure water ice cubes.


What happens when you put ice cubes into liquid water?

This is called Phase Change.Water is one of the few matters that can become a liquid, solid, and gas. If you freeze water, which is in a liquid state, it changes into a solid state. If you heat the liquid, you see the liquid escaping in the form of bubbles and changing into a gaseous state. These states of matter are only the physical properties. There is no change in its chemical composition. Ice and water vapor continue to be water in different forms or states.


What is the effect on temperature when ice water is put in the room temperature water?

Yes, the number of ice cubes does affect the temperature of water. It does so in two ways. First, the greater the mass of ice cubes in the water, the greater the cooling effect.But even if you have the same mass of ice - in one large cube or lots of small cubes, the water with more cubes will cool quicker. This is because there is a greater surface area. Although this will make no difference in the long term in a perfectly insulated container, in normal circumstances, there will be some heat gained through the surroundings and so there will be a tendency towards the ambient temperature. So the shorter term effect does matter.


When you put ice cubes into water why does the drink become cooler?

The ice water cools the glass down, meaning it is now cooler than room temperature. This causes the gases in the air to cool when they hit the glass. The gases then cool to become liquid leaving condensation (or mist as you have said) on the outside of the glass. =]

Can you put ice in a portable air conditioner?

No, you can not put ice into a portable air conditioner. I think you are actually referring to a portable air cooler, in which case, you can put ice into the water chamber.


When you put ice cubes in a jar what happens to the outside of the jar?

Condensation forms on the outside of the jar when you put ice cubes inside, due to the cold temperature of the ice cubes causing the surrounding air to cool and reach its saturation point. This results in moisture in the air condensing on the colder surface of the jar.


Can you put ice in front of air conditioner?

Yes you can put ice in front of your air conditioner. And as a matter of fact, for each ton of ice that you use up, you will have gotten a ton of cooling done. This is the origin of the term "Ton" as it is applied to cooling. A ton of cooling is 12,000 btuh. So if you use up a ton of ice per hour, it will give you the same cooling effect as a 12,000btuh window air conditioner!


What if ice cubes are put in kerosene?

If ice cubes are put in kerosene, the ice will melt due to the higher temperature of the kerosene. Kerosene has a lower freezing point than water, so it will not freeze the water in the ice cubes. The ice will eventually melt and mix with the kerosene, but they will not chemically react with each other.


Would ice cubes melt in hot water first or will the ice cubes freeze the water first?

If you put ice cubes in a bowl or whatever of hot water, the ice cube is sure to melt when put so says science.

Is it harmful to put water in the freezer?

Not if you want ice cubes.


Why do ice cubes pop when they are put in water?

The sound of the popping comes from the ice cube shattering or cracking. The liquid that the ice cubes are dropped into is warmer than the cubes, so the cube startes to warm, which causes the ice to expand, making it crack and hence the popping sound.


Why dont ice cubes melt when they are put in an ice box?

Ice cubes do eventually melt in an icebox, but at a slower rate compared to room temperature due to the insulation of the icebox. The icebox helps maintain a lower temperature inside, slowing down the melting process of the ice cubes.


What happens to the temperature of the drink when you put ice cubes in it?

What sort of the cubes are put into drinks?

The cubes typically put into drinks are ice cubes, which are frozen blocks of water that cool beverages when added. In some cocktails or specialty drinks, you might also find flavored ice cubes made from fruit juices or purees, adding both chill and flavor. Additionally, there are decorative ice cubes, such as those with embedded fruits or herbs, used in upscale presentations.
