RE: The Mpemba Effect: A Scientific Paradox on Why Hot Water Freezes Faster Than a Cold One
Shouldn't the answer be obvious though? Hot water has the molecules further apart therefore when exposed to low temperatures, more surface area of individual molecules is exposed to those low temperatures than that of cold water whose molecules are packed much closer together.
I will take my Nobel Prize now, thanks 👺👺👺
Why did you not submit this entry in 2012 and take a shot at the £1000 challenge from the Royal Society of Chemistry? :)
Not too late @edumurphy, you can still submit it :D
They will expect more experimental rigour than I am willing to bother with. Do they take offhanded Steemit comments? That's more my speed 👺
Besides, your post actually shocked me because I always assumed this question had been looooooong answered
It not yet answered. So, here's your chance to give it a shot.
