Ice and water are identical in mass. (However, they have different densities and thus are different by volume, but we are not concerned with any volumes of ice so ignore this fact.)
Density of water = 1.0 g/mL 1 lb = 16 oz
16 oz (28 g/oz) = 448 g 448 g (1 mL / 1 g) = 448 mL
448 mL (0.033814 fl oz./mL) = 15.15 fl oz.
1 pound of ice/water is slightly less than 1 pint of water.
It takes about 144 BTUs to melt 1 pound of ice at its melting point of 32°F (0°C) and fully convert it into water at the same temperature.
80 cal/gram of heat is required to be extracted from water at 0 degree temp. to convert into ice at 0 degree temp.
1 pound of water at sea level can produce approximately 26.8 cubic feet of steam.
Depends on the temperature of the water. If it is 32 degree water and you want 32 degree ice then you need a -144 BTU loss to change state from liquid to solid. It takes 1 BTU to raise the temperature of 1 pound of water 1 degree (F). If the water is 82 degrees then you would need a -50 BTU loss (+) 144 BTU to change state. TOTAL WEIGHT OF WATER (X) 1 BTU (X) Degrees desired of change. If it is ICE to WATER then it is the TEMP of ICE (X) .5 BTU (X) NUMBER OF DEGREES INCREASED = TOTAL BTU needs. If you change state in the process you have to add 144 BTU for 32 degree ICE to 32 degree WATER and 970 BTU for 212 degree WATER to 212 degree STEAM but only when you change state.
To change water at 200°F to ice at 30°F, you need to remove 144 Btu from one pound of water. This process involves cooling the water to its freezing point of 32°F, then removing the latent heat of fusion to convert it to ice at 32°F, and finally further cooling the ice to the desired temperature of 30°F.
Ice is lighter than water. That is why it floats on water.The term "lighter" is confusing here. A pound of water will still freeze into a pound of ice. However, the the pound of ice is less dense than the pound of water, so it floats. This gives the impression that a pound of ice is lighter than a pound of water. Well really, it depends on the quantity of both ice and water. However lets say if you had 1 kilogram of ice and 1 kilogram of water. The ice would weigh more because the particles are pulled together more and they're no longer liquid (physically) and the ice would be bigger and heavier (obviously) .
LATENT HEAT OF FUSION When one pound of ice melts, it absorbs 144 BTUs at a constant temperature of 32°F. If one pound of water is to be frozen into ice, 144 BTUs must be removed from the water at a constant temperature of 32°F.
$2.48 a pound
The cost of a ten pound bag of ice can vary from store to store and state to state. The average cost of a ten pound bag of ice as of 2014 is $2.00 to $4.00.
1 pound
Any amount of water can make an ice cube. It's not the amount that determines if water will become ice, it is the temperature. The water just needs to be at a temperature of 0oC or lower, and it will become ice.
I dont think anything can live frozen in a block of ice ...
A pound of ice would melt into roughly 2 cups of water. The volume of liquid water is slightly less than the volume of solid ice due to differences in molecular structure and density.
144btus per pound in 1 hour
To convert 1 pound of ice at 32°F to 1 pound of water at 32°F, you need to supply 144 BTUs. This energy is required to overcome the latent heat of fusion, which is the energy needed to change ice into water without changing its temperature.
1 cubic yard of ice has a weight of 49421 pound-force.
I was just in Publix today and was told that the dry ice costs $1.50 a pound.
