makes it colder since the ice that is melting is taking the heat in from the water around it to cause it to melt that is why you put ice in your ice water and it gets colder

What is the term for colder water will sink while warmer water rises?

The term for colder water sinking while warmer water rises is called thermal stratification. This phenomenon occurs in bodies of water where layers of different temperatures form due to variations in water density.

When the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit is it warmer or colder that the freezing temperature of water?

The freezing temperature of water is 0 degrees celsius or 32 degrees fahrenheit so it is colder than the freezing temperature of water.


Is rain colder than hail?

Yes, rain is typically colder than hail because rain is liquid water, while hail is frozen water. Hail forms when raindrops are carried into colder regions of the atmosphere where they freeze, resulting in ice pellets that can fall to the ground.


Why are rivers cold in the summer and warm in the winter?

part of it is perception and part seasonal. As the temperature warms snow at the higher altitude begins to melt and flow into rivers and causes the rivers to be colder. When fall and winter come about the snow has all melted and the river has been heated by the sun making it warmer. Now for the perception part. As you are standing on the bank in the heat of summer the water feels cool and refreshing to your heated skin. In the winter your body feels colder so the temperature difference doesn't feel as extreme to your sense of touch making the water seem warmer than you remembered it being in the summer.

Is ice endothermic or exothermic?

Definitions Exothermic - accompanied by, or requiring, the release of heat. Endothermic - accompanied by, or requiring, the absorption of heat. Now, does the melting ice get warmer or colder? If it gets colder, then it is exothermic. If it gets warmer, then it is endothermic. Consider how we make ice - we put water into a cold place so that it gets colder with time.


If a test tube is full of water at 20 digrese in time would the water continue to get colder?

The future temperature of the water depends upon the surrounding air's temperature. So if the air around the test tube is colder than 20 degrees, then the water will get colder. If the air temperature is warmer than 20 degrees then the water will get warmer.


Which is colder frozen water or frozen salt water at melting points?

The freezing point of salted water is lower compared with the freezing point of pure water. So when melting frozen salt water is colder.

Does ice make water colder or does water make ice warmer?

Ice absorbs heat from its surroundings, including water, causing the water to lose heat and cool down. This transfer of heat energy from water to ice results in the water becoming colder and the ice melting into water.
