Anxious for your pasta water to reach a boiling point? You’re probably tired of hearing "a watched pot never boils." That’s why instead we have the hard facts for you on the science behind the ...

Substances can exist in three states of matter - solid, liquid and gas. Substances can change states. To change the state of a substance energy must be transferred to, or from, the substance. Phew! On ...

Water can change states from solid to liquid and to gas. When water is cooled to a very low temperature it freezes and turns into ice. It changes from a liquid back in to a solid. Hey there, looking ...

Cold water does not boil faster as water only boils when it reaches its boiling point. At sea level, water's boiling point is 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius. Boiled water can be used ...

THIS is a very large and important work, and one which cannot fail to be useful to the scientific chemist. It is divided into several parts, and contains, or rather consists of, tables of the elements ...

Physicists in Japan have discovered that the melting point of water increases slightly in a strong magnetic field. Hideaki Inaba and colleagues at Chiba University found that it increases by 5.6 ...
