Why do ice cubes stick together at times?
A cold glass of water sometimes causes water vapour from the surrounding air to condense onto the surface of the glass. The same thing happens with ice cubes, but instead the water droplets condensing on the surface, they will instantly freeze and 'weld' ice cubes together. They also can stick together if put into a drink, where again, the water in the drink near the surface of the ice cube may get cold enough to freeze and cause the ice cubes to fuse together.
Does an ice cube release heat or do water absorb heat from the ice cube?
An ice cube releases heat as it melts, transferring thermal energy to its surroundings. Water absorbs this heat from the ice cube until equilibrium is reached, causing the ice to melt and the water temperature to increase.
Activity to show that water is bad conductor of heat?
Water is a relatively good conductor of heat. I said "relatively" because it depends on what you compare it with. To show that it is a bad conductor of heat, you need to compare it with something that is even better conductor of heat (i.e. metal). What you can do: Use 2 fresh ice cubes that are similar in size. Put one inside a cup of water in room temperature. Wrap the other one with aluminium foil. Observe and you will see that the one that is wrapped with aluminium foil melts faster.
How do you make fog in a bottle?
Make fog in a bottle with hot waterIn this case the condensation is caused by the temperature variation between simple ice and hot water. 1. Fill up the jar or bottle completely with very hot water and let it stay there for about 60 seconds. 2. Pour out all but about an inch of the hot water. 3. Put a strainer or bag over the top of the jar. 4. Place ice cubes in the strainer or plastic bag. 5. Fog will form as the hot water vapor from the bottom of the bottle contacts the cold air created by the ice cubes and begins condensation.and there ya go. hehe
Are properties of water more dense as a solid than a liquid?
Water is less dense as a solid. To understand this just think a constant volume of water. Freezing water causes the volume to expand and the ice solid floats on the liquid water. Therefore ice is LESS dense than liquid water.
Would ice cubes melt in hot water first or will the ice cubes freeze the water first?
If you put ice cubes in a bowl or whatever of hot water, the ice cube is sure to melt when put so says science.
What if ice cubes are put in kerosene?
If ice cubes are put in kerosene, the ice will melt due to the higher temperature of the kerosene. Kerosene has a lower freezing point than water, so it will not freeze the water in the ice cubes. The ice will eventually melt and mix with the kerosene, but they will not chemically react with each other.
Garbage disposal sharpening?
Put ice cubes in disposal and run water as usual until ice cubes are shredded.
Is it harmful to put water in the freezer?
Not if you want ice cubes.
How do you keep ice cubes cold with natural materials?
put them in cold water
What happens to a glass filled half way with water and then ice cubes are added?
As the ice cubes are added to the glass, they displace the water that was already in the glass. The level of water in the glass will rise slightly due to the displacement caused by the ice cubes, but the total volume of water and ice combined will remain the same as before the ice cubes were added.
What is a real life example of freezing?
Ice cubes you use to cool your drinks after you put the water in the freezer, Ice burgs....
Will water pour out of the glass when the ice melts into a full glass of water?
If he glass was full and you put ice cubes in it would overflow strait away.
Can you put ice cubes in the air conditioner?
No, it is not recommended to put ice cubes in the air conditioner. The AC unit is designed to cool the air by removing heat, not by using ice cubes. Putting ice cubes in the AC can cause damage to the unit and reduce its efficiency.
In what kind of water do ice cubes melt faster?
Hot, salty water. If you put an ice cube into a boiling pot of salt water, it won't last long.
What is a way to see that ice is less dense then liquid water?
Put ice cubes in a glass of water. They will float, indicating that they are less dense than liquid water.
What will happen if you put 3 ice cubes in a plastic cup for 10 minutes and then for the other 10 minutes you put the 3 ice cubes in a paper cup?
The ice cubes will melt at a relatively equal rate in both the plastic and paper cup. The paper cup may allow for slightly more heat transfer due to its thinner material, but the difference in melting time should be minimal. Both cups will have water from the melted ice cubes after 20 minutes.
