Chapter 2, Problem 3AC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
Artificial ice cubes made of granite can be cooled in the freezer and used in drinks. Would these cool drinks more or less effective than an equal weight of ice cubes from the same freezer.
Introduction:
Absorption and retention of heat by any substance depends on the chemical structure of that substance, mainly on the type of
Hydrogen bonds are weak bonds that are more temperature to temperature. They absorb heat fast as well as release heat faster.
