RESEARCH REPORT

Ice is the solid form of any liquid. A freezing point of a substances lowered by pressure. Most substances contract while frozen. Density of ice increase as the temperature of it rises. Molecules in solids are packed together very tightly in fixed positions. This makes it difficult for the solid to change shape. In liquids, molecules are close together but they can slide past one another and change places. Because of this, liquids can change shape easily.

Ice was discovered two centuries ago in the early 1800s. Frederic Tudor introduced icy beverages to the world. As he became more successful he was later named the “The Boston Ice King.” During the 200 million years of the Cryogenian period, the Earth was submerged into some the deepest cold it has ever been through – and the appearance of complex life may have caused it. One theory is that the glaciation was triggered by the evolution of large cells, and possibly also multicellular organisms, that sank to the seabed after vanishing. This would have sucked carbon dioxide ( CO2 …show more content…

Ice could affect the taste of a beverage when dissolved in a liquid. Could effect on what type of drink people would prefer. Could improve businesses if the liquid can sustain in the water longer. Ice can affect the amount of liquid someone can put in a cup.

When the molecules in a liquid and ice combine. The molecules in the liquid break down layers of the molecules in ice. The ingredients in a liquid can break down ice. If the liquid is less dense it will break ice down. Most substances contract and become denser upon freezing, but water expands and becomes less dense. Freezing points are governed largely by the nature of the substances themselves.

This project can help ice cream shops, refrigerator companies, water companies, and soda companies. It can also help Ice packing companies, and water
