Freezing rain is the term given to the precipitation of the rain sustained at temperatures below freezing by the ambient air mass, which results in freezing on encountering with the surfaces. Freezing rain is formed completely of liquid droplets, unlike sleet, ice pellets, or hail.
The freezing rain falls and solidifies on a wire fence as the rain is changing from a liquid to a solid state by withdrawing thermal energy, ultimately resulting in freezing.
1. Answer;
- Exothermic reaction
Explanation;
-Exothermic reactions are types of chemical reactions in which heat energy is released to the surroundings. Since enthalpy change is the difference between the energy of products an that of reactants. It means that in an exothermic reaction the energy of products is less than that of products. In this case an energy of 315kJ is released to the surroundings.
2. Answer;
Conserved
-The total amount of energy before and after a chemical reaction is the same. Thus, energy is conserved.
Explanation;
-According to the law of conservation of energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. Energy may change form during a chemical reaction. For example, energy may change form from chemical energy to heat energy when gas burns in a furnace. However, the exact amount of energy remains after the reaction as before, which is true for all chemical reactions.
Galvanizing protects from rust in a number of ways: It forms a barrier that prevents corrosive substances from reaching the underlying steel or iron. The zinc serves as a sacrificial anode so that even if the coating is scratched, the exposed steel will still be protected by the remaining zinc.

In the first situation: the mechanism of covection is the main form of heat transfer when warm air from a heater moves around and upward.
In the case of the metal pan the mechanism of heat transfer is conduction.
In the case of sunburn the mechanism is radiation.
In the case of an ice cube melting in a hand, conduction is the most important mechanism.
