Solution
Ice keeps your drink cool because it absorbs heat from the drink. When you put ice in your juice, the ice is at a lower temperature than the juice. Heat always flows from a warmer object to a cooler one, in this case, from the juice to the ice. This process of heat transfer causes the ice to melt and the juice to cool down.

A student had a glass of water at 25°C. He put some ice in it. Once the ice melted, he found that the water's temperature had decreased to 18°C.The student puts the same amount of water at 25°C into another glass. He then adds more ice to this glass than he had added to the first glass. Which statement correctly explains what will happen after the ice melts? A. The water will be colder than 18°C because more thermal energy would have been added to it. B. The water will be warmer than 18°C because it would have received more heat from the ice. C. The water will be warmer than 18°C because melting would have taken place for a longer time. D. The water will be colder than 18°C because more heat would have flowed from it to the ice.
The additional heat causes the kinetic energy of some of the ice molecules to so they can more readily undergo the phase change to liquid. Therefore, the temperature of the ice remains constant. Since some of the ice changes to liquid water, the amount of ice .
Cathy hypothesizes that plastic foam insulates cold drinks better than metal or ceramic materials do. To testthe hypothesis, she fills cups made from these materials with equal amounts of cold water. She records thetemperature of the water in each cup, using scientific thermometers, every 10 minutes until the waterreaches room temperature. Which of these conditions must be the same for this experiment to be valid?Group of answer choicesThe thermometer that is in each cupThe material of each cupThe ending temperature of the water in each cupThe starting temperature of the water in each cup PreviousNext
