Question

Why is ice at 273 K more effective in cooling than water at
the same temperature ?​

Answer 1

$\huge{\underline{\mathtt{\red{A}\pink{N}\green{S}\blue{W}\purple{E}\orange{R}}}}$

To achieve the room temperature, the ice at 273 K will absorb latent heat as well as thermal energy. Water at a temperature of 273 K would just absorb heat energy to achieve room temperature. Thus, water at 273 K will absorb less environmental heat energy than ice at 273 K. Therefore ice at 273 K more effective in cooling than water at the same temperature.

Answer 2

$\huge \red{❥} \{\mathtt{{\purple{\boxed{\tt{\pink{\red{A}\pink{n}\orange{s}\green{w}\blue{e}\purple{r᭄}}}}}}}$

To achieve the room temperature, the ice at 273 K will absorb latent heat as well as thermal energy. Water at a temperature of 273 K would just absorb heat energy to achieve room temperature. Thus, water at 273 K will absorb less environmental heat energy than ice at 273 K. Therefore ice at 273 K more effective in cooling than water at the same temperature.
