How long does it take for milk to freeze?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Without knowing both the initial temperature of the milk and the temperature of the environment it is in, I cannot do anything but give a meaningless guess. I can assume that milk freezes close enough to the freezing point of water and that the latent heat of freezing is also close enough to water that neither is important (it can be calculated for water and assume the answer for milk is same).

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer

5% i did a biology experiment and found the answer

or look behind a soda can

From the bottle/can

In a standard 250ml serving (a bottle is usually 500ml, a can 330ml) contains around 25.9g of sugar. That is equivalent of 29% of your Sugar GDA.

I'd say if you don't like sugar than Dr pepper isn't right for you, because in one can of Dr pepper there is normally over 30g of sugar

Will drinking 2 percent milk every day cause weight gain if you are trying to diet?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A collection of opinions from s.com contributors:

  • Drinking 2 percent milk everyday will not cause weight gain. It is very healthy to drink a cup of any milk everyday. The 2 percent milk has the upside of less fat but still contains calcium.
  • No, it will not cause weight gain. I have been dieting for two weeks now, and have been drinking one glass of milk a day before bed. I have lost over 10 pounds. I have not increased my exercise, but I have reduced my portion size at meals, and I have stopped snacking too. Milk has increased my metabolism.
  • You need calcium to maintain a healthy body and bones and milk is an excellent source of calcium. Two percent is a better choice than whole milk. One percent milk is even a better choice than 2% milk. What causes weight gain is not the milk itself, but too many calories going in our bodies and not enough being used or burned up. Every pound of body fat is equal to 3,500 calories stored in our bodies. And these are calories from all the excess food we take in, not just 2% milk.
