For water in glass plastic or styrofoam cups - which will freeze fastest?
Assuming they are the same or similar shape and volume, water in glass would freeze first, then plastic then foam. Foam allows transfer of heat out of water more slowly than plastic and the glass probably has the highest rate of heat radiation of the three.
Which freezes first hot cold or salt water?
Salt water freezes before plain water because the presence of salt lowers the freezing point of the water. Cold water will freeze faster than hot water because the molecules in the cold water have less kinetic energy and are more likely to form solid ice structures.
If the specific heat capacity of water were lower than it is ponds in the cold of winter would be what?
Ponds would freeze more easily in winter as water would lose heat more quickly and reach freezing temperature at a faster rate. This could have negative effects on aquatic life that relies on the pond environment for survival.
Does pure water freeze faster than regular water?
Yes pure (distilled) water will freeze faster than tap water because any impurities lower the freezing point. Regular water has minerals dissolved in it (such as calcium phosphate, and iron) and will freeze at a very slightly lower temperature than completely pure water.
How many degrees cooler on the Fahrenheit scale would the water have to be in order to freeze?
Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, so the water would have to be 32 degrees cooler on the Fahrenheit scale in order to freeze.
Will water freeze faster in a plastic cup or a metal cup?
Water in a metal cup will freeze faster because metal conducts coldness and energy the most. trust me, I did a project with a metal, plastic, glass, and paper to see which cup would freeze the quickest. Hopefully this answer helped.
What would freeze faster 7-up or water?
Water will freeze faster than 7-up. This is due to the extra stuff in 7-up that isn't in water, such as sugars, syrups and caffeine.
Does water freeze faster in plastic or metal?
Water freezes faster in metal compared to plastic due to the higher thermal conductivity of metal. This means that heat is transferred more efficiently from the water to the metal, allowing it to cool down more rapidly. In contrast, plastic has lower thermal conductivity, leading to slower heat transfer and a longer freezing time for the water.
What freezes faster in less than an hour salt or tap water?
Tap water would freeze faster but salt water would allow the waters freezing point to be lowered.
Would a marble or a plastic dice sink faster in water?
A plastic dice would likely sink faster in water than a marble. This is because plastic is denser than water, while marbles are often made of glass which is less dense than water.
If i put one spoon full of water in my cup would it freeze faster.?
it depends on what the heck you are talking about......
What will freeze in less than an hour salt or tap water?
Salt water freezes at a lower temp than fresh, meaning colder. It may freeze faster when chilled enough be cause the salt would disrupt the plateo of the water so it may freeze faster.
Would a puddle freeze if the temperature was - 5 degrees?
Yes, a puddle would likely freeze at -5 degrees Celsius because water freezes at or below 0 degrees Celsius. The lower the temperature, the faster the puddle will freeze.
Does tea or juice or fresh water or salt water freeze faster?
Fresh water is probably the likely candidate. If you add salt to a liquid, its freezing point lowers. Meaning, it would need a lower temperature for it to freeze.
What freezes faster sugar water or salt water or water?
Assuming you had equal amounts of each, the pure water would freeze first...Adding sugar or salt to water lowers its freezing point, meaning that more energy would be required to be removed from salt water and sugar water to freeze it
For water in glass plastic or styrofoam cups - which will freeze fastest?
Assuming they are the same or similar shape and volume, water in glass would freeze first, then plastic then foam. Foam allows transfer of heat out of water more slowly than plastic and the glass probably has the highest rate of heat radiation of the three.
Which would freeze faster salt water or tap water with examples?
Tap water would freeze faster. That's the reason road crews apply salt to streets in the winter time. The salt water keeps the roads in a liquid state down to zero degrees Fahrenheit. Tap water is more like freezing rain. It freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
