How to cool down a can of drink in 2 minutes. A simple science trick to give you a
speedy ice cold beverage which won't get diluted like it would if you were to put ice
cubes in your drink. Perfect for cooling beer and soda cans in an emergency, and
you can even use it for chilling wine bottles.

Take your bowl fill it with water until its roughly one third full. Then take some ice
cubes from the freezer and tip them into the bowl. I used two trays of ice cubes.

Next add a couple of table spoons of salt into the ice water and stir it in. As the salt
dissolves into the water, it will actually disassociate into its constituent, sodium and
chloride ions. Water molecules are polar, and each molecule has a partially
positive and a partially negative charged end. The negative end attracts the positive
sodium ion, and the positive end attracts the negative end. This process (known as
solvation) requires energy which is obtained by reducing the thermal energy of the
(http://cdn.instructables.com/F3C/ZEOC/I82VSKVB/F3CZEOCI82VSKVB.LARGE.jpg)
water, hence reducing the temperature of the salt ice-water mix. The ice will not
only melt, but actually get colder!

Step 4: Cooling The Drink

(http://cdn.instructables.com/FOI/3OO3/I82VSKYP/FOI3OO3I82VSKYP.LARGE.jpg)

Once you've stirred in the salt, carefully place your drink into the solution and
submerge it.
As the salt ice-water solution is so much colder then the room temperature drink,
the heat energy in the can will be drawn out and the temperature of the drink inside
the can will rapidly reduce.

If you like you can monitor the temperature change by checking the temperature of
a room temperature can, and comparing it to the temperature of a can after its
been cooled in the solution. I left the can in the solution for 2 minutes and found the
temperature fell from 75F (24C) to 41F (5C) which is a reduction in
temperature of 34F or 19C.
This science(http://cdn.instructables.com/FS5/1Z2Z/I82VSL92/FS51Z2ZI82VSL92.LARGE.jpg)
is not only a fun and practical way to quickly cool down your drink,
but it can also be used for making home made ice-cream.

What would have been neat is if you did the same thing in another bowl but did
salt to find out how much the salt helped cool the drink.

not use the

But still really cool.

That is absolute rubbish about the sodium and chlorine dissociating. They
the salt is just dissolved in the water turning it into salt
water which has a freezing point of 0 deg F when the temp of the ice can
be as high as 32 deg F

(/member/gthompson20/)
do no such thing

Since it has now been turned into salt water the latent heat of the fusion of
the ice has to be replaced and it is absorbed from the surrounds. If my
memory serves me right, from high school physics, this is how 0 deg F
was originally defined
The same mechanism can be used to actually freeze pure water if
isolated from the salt.

it's pretty well known that sodium chloride dissociates when it's dissolved
in water.

Second law of thermodynamics states: Two substances with different

(/member/shahrokhani/)
temperatures

I'm afraid this is zeroth law of thermodynamics which says:


if two bodies are in thermal equilibrium with a third body, they are also in thermal
equilibrium with each other,or two bodies are in thermal equilibrium if
both have the same temperature reading even if they are not in contact
.
.
The first law of thermodynamics is simply an expression of the conservation of
energy principle,and it asserts that energy is a thermodynamic property.

.
.
Second law of thermodynamics states:
It is impossible for any device that operates on a cycle to receive heat from a
single reservoir and produce a net amount of work(KelvinPlanck statement)
or
It is impossible to construct a device that operates in a cycle and produces
no effect other than the transfer of heat from a lower-temperature body to a
higher-temperature body(Clausius statement)

I always just put it in the microwave and set the timer to a negative number.

Well that's how we USED to make ice cream.

Spinning the container sideways in the bowl will cool the contents with out salt.
Salt should cool it faster.
(/member/curbdiver/)
I bought a machine at a yard sale that had a tray to hold the ice and a motor with
a suction cup on the shaft to attach to the bottom of the can.
It would cool the contents without shaking it up by cooling the outside of the can
as it sun around

I've heard of this before but never tried it.Does it make the ice all melt down super
