Absolutely. Water must achieve a temperature below 32°F before it can freeze. The closer the water is to room temperature, the quicker it will freeze.

There is a phenomenon in which warm water freezes and cold water not:

In some regions(e.g. Siberia) it is possoble to pour boiling hot water to the ground and it will freeze even before it hits the bottom. This is possible as hot water's molecules are moving more heavily than those of cold water. Therefore the surface of the water is bigger and warmth can leave the molecules faster.

I remember a report of a experiment at one of the university's found hot water froze faster by a inute.

Does hot water get colder faster than cold water?

Yes ,the higher the temperature gradient between the hot water and room temperature, the faster it cools. However, that does not mean that hot water will freeze faster than cold water (a common urban legend). If you have water at 50°C in a room at 20°C, it will cool from 50° to 40° faster than it will cool from 40° to 30°.

Which hot or cold water will freeze faster?

It has been proven that hot water freezes faster than cold water.


Why does sea water freezes faster than fresh water?

sea water doesnt freeze faster than fresh water, fresh water freezes faster than sea water as it has a lower freezing point than sea water has as sea water contains salt which makes the boiling/freezing points increase therefore making the sea water freeze at a lower temperature.


What temperature will a 150ml of water freeze?

That depends. Ask not: 'How long does it take 150ml of water to freeze?' Rather ask: 'How cold is the temperature surrounding the water?' and: 'What is the heat conductivity of the vessel containing the water?' According to the second law of thermodynamics, an object hotter than its surroundings will tend to cool and vice versa. So, the cooler the surrounding temperature, the faster the water will freeze.
