Explain how lumps of ice are more effective cooling than water at 273 K .
Answers
Answer:
Ice at 273 K is more effective in cooling than water at the same temperature. This is due to latent heat of fusion, meaning hidden heat. ... Thus, ice has less energy than water and hence it is more effective in cooling as compared with water.

Ice at 273 K is more effective in cooling than water at the same temperature.
This is due to latent heat of fusion, meaning hidden heat.This signifies that the energy possessed by water is more than that of ice because while heating ice, the heat energy is used up in breaking the bonds b/w the particles without affecting the temp. Thus, ice has less energy than water and hence it is more effective in cooling as compared with water.
(Note : Its 273 K not 273° k :) )
