All you need to do is keep adding heat to it. The laws of Nature

and the properties of H2O take care of all the rest.

Does sound travel faster in Ice Water or Steam?

Sound travels faster in ice water compared to steam. This is because sound waves travel faster in denser mediums, and ice water is denser than steam. So, the speed of sound in ice water is faster than in steam.


What is the amount of heat to change 10 lbs of ice at 20 degree F to steam 220 degree F?

To change 10 lbs of ice at 20°F to steam at 220°F, you would need to consider the heat required for each phase change: Heating the ice from 20°F to 32°F (melting point) - specific heat of ice Melting the ice into water at 32°F - heat of fusion of ice Heating the water from 32°F to 212°F (boiling point) - specific heat of water Vaporizing the water into steam at 212°F - heat of vaporization of water Heating the steam from 212°F to 220°F - specific heat of steam


How many BTU's to change 22 degree ice to 222 degree steam?

To change 1 gram of ice at 22 degrees Fahrenheit to steam at 212 degrees Fahrenheit, you would need approximately 1064.73 BTUs. This calculation takes into account the energy required to melt the ice, heat the water, and then boil it to steam.


Does sound travel faster in a Ice Steam or water?

Sound travels faster in water than in ice or steam. This is because sound waves travel faster through denser materials, and water is denser than both ice and steam.


How many btus are required to change 5 pound of ice at 20 degrees Fahrenheit to steam at 220 degrees Fahrenheit?

To change 5 pounds of ice at 20°F to steam at 220°F, you will need to go through multiple phases: raise ice temperature to 32°F, melt ice to water at 32°F, raise water temperature to 212°F, and then convert water to steam at 212°F to steam at 220°F. The total heat required, in BTUs, is around 503 BTUs per pound of ice, which translates to about 2515 BTUs for 5 pounds of ice.

Ice to water to steam.


What is an example of a change in state?

Boiling (or freezing) water (the change to steam or ice).


Does water change into ice at its boiling point?

No, it turns into steam. Water turns into ice at its freezing point.


Steam is sometimes used to melt ice Is this change physical or chemical?

The use of steam to melt ice is a physical change. The ice is still the same substance (water), but it changes from a solid to a liquid form due to the gain of heat energy from the steam. No new substances are formed during this process.


Density list of ice and water and steam?

The density of ice is approximately 0.92 g/cm³, the density of water is 1 g/cm³, and the density of steam (water vapor) at standard conditions is around 0.6 g/cm³. As temperature changes the density of water and ice can also change - with water being most dense at 4°C.

What is a phase change example of?

When ice melts and becomes water, that is a phase change. Same when water boils and becomes steam (a gas) that is also a phase change.


Difference between a pysical change and a chemical change?

Chemical change changes the electrons of matter, a physical change does not. Water is water as ice, water and steam, this is a change of state but physically there is no change of water it is a change of the energy content of water.


What is the new substances that are formed during physical change?

in a physical change, no new substance is formed. for example liquid water. You freeze it, it becomes ice. when you boil it, it evaporates into steam. HOWEVER. Steam, ice, or liquid, it is STILL water. You only form new substances in chemical changes: cooking/burning food, reacting chemicals etc. : )
