A woman informs her engineer husband that "hot water will freeze faster than cold water." He calls this statement nonsense but h
e does so in a polite sensitive manner. She answers by saying that she has actually timed the freezing process for ice trays in the home refrigerator and found that hot water does indeed freeze faster. As a friend, you are asked to settle the argument and preserve family harmony. Is there any logical explanation for the woman's observation
It could be as a result of evaporation from the hot water causing it to have less mass than usual. Evaporation will allow the volume of the hot water to decrease and by so doing will cool faster than cold water which is at a higher mass. This is how I will explain my observations to them.
The information the equation above provides lets us know that when 2 mol of hydrogen fluoride (HF) are produced, 536 kJ of energy (as heat) is produced.
This is correct as the Interior lowlands are located ib the US. These are correct as the others are in the US but aren't located anywhere near the Interior Lowlands.
Climate change will make plants—and us—thirstier. The combined effects of increased CO2 levels and warmer temperatures will increase water consumption by vegetation. That will lead to water declines in streams and rivers like the Ashepoo River in South Carolina
