Science Experiment

Which one will freeze faster? The hot water (left) or cold water (right)? My son read about this, and he wanted to test it. Since it's 28 degrees Fahrenheit outside, I thought we should try it.

The cold water will freeze faster, but the hot water will cool down more degrees than the cold water does during a given interval of time.

@MethDozer I have noticed that. That's pretty cool.

@UnstableDiffusion I'm just hedging a bet. The Mpemba effect doesn't always occure. It's condition specific.
