No. The important factor is the surface area of the water that is exposed to cold conditions. A large, thin pan of water will freeze just as quickly as a smaller, thin pan of water if the ratio of surface area to volume is the same. The reason a large bottle of water freezes more slowly than a smaller one is that less of the water is exposed to the outside of the container, where its heat is lost. And, as the ice forms inside the container, it further reduces the rapidity of heat loss to the air around the container.

Water will freeze faster than Coke because Coke has more gas than water and gas takes more time to freeze than plain liquid


What freezes faster warm water or cold water?

Cold water, less energy must be removed from cold water to make it freeze. warm water has more energy which needs to be removed before it freezes. it is an urban myth that warm water freezes faster.


Does vinegar freeze faster than saltwater?

Hot water will freeze faster than vinegar because the hot water atoms will slow quickly and the vinegar will take longer to freeze because it contains an oil like sustance which take lionger to freeze.


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 will freeze faster 2 percent milk orange juice or tap water?

Tap water because the particles can more easily be free, allowing it to be able to freeze quicker.


Do they have a report on what freezes faster water or sugar water?

Pure water freezes faster, although as anti-freeze goes, sugar is not one of the more potent. Try salt instead.

Does food with more water content freeze faster?

Yes, food with higher water content generally freezes faster because water has a high specific heat capacity, meaning it can transfer heat more efficiently and freeze quicker than foods with lower water content.


Does 1 tablespoon of salt in water freeze slower than 3 tablespoons of salt in water?

No, adding more salt to water actually lowers the freezing point, causing the water to freeze faster. This is because the salt disrupts the formation of ice crystals, making it harder for the water to freeze.


Which freezes faster hot water or cold water?

Cold water will freeze faster. Because the freezing point of water is 0oC, water that is closer to that point will freeze faster then hot water. This is because it will require less time to lower the temperature to the freezing point.


Which hot or cold water will freeze faster?

In some cases, hot water can freeze faster than cold water due to the Mpemba effect. This phenomenon occurs because hot water can evaporate more quickly, which reduces the volume of the water and leads to faster cooling. However, there are many variables at play, so it is not a reliable method for freezing water quickly.
