1. I dunno, but I do know hot water cools off faster than cold water.

22. It depends.
Edited on Wed Jun-01-05 01:48 PM by Q3JR4
In scientific experiments, we have seen this effect occur, but there are no real theoretical or experimental explanations as to why it happens.

The shape of the container, whether or not evaporation occurs, how the hot water changes the refrigeration environment, whether or not super cooled water is involved, all of these are speculation.

In other instances the cooler water freezes first. Sort of like some "cold fusion" experiments. One group can produce an effect and some other group produces a different effect.

13. Just make sure you don't make loud noises or slam the refrigerator door
Otherwise the ice cubes could fall.
