Caryl Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Why salt? :-? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted August 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 cause when you add salt to ice, it drops the temp to about -20 degrees C. its all chemistry dear caryl :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Why salt? :-? When cooling water there is a relatively linear relationship between energy removed and drop in temperature. Until you hit freezing point, then, while you remove energy the temperature does not actually drop. The loss in energy comes from changing the structure of the water to one with a lower energy state, that being ice. The more energy you remove the higher the ratio of liquid water to solid water. That's slush. Adding the salt essentially causes the water to turn from solid to liquid, but it has the same total amount of heat energy in it which requires that the temperature drops. Or another way to look at it, turning the ice into water costs "heat" which means the solution becomes cooler. Roughly, I'm sure a chemist would argue about the exact semantics and processes, but good enough for Jr. high level chemistry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zev Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Hate to tell you but most of the milk you buy these days is reconstituted from powder - that's why it lasts so long. Gone are the days of the glass bottles and foil tops - and milk only being good for three days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix44 Posted August 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 The dreaded flatmates are gone.

VinsonMassif Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Phoenix you seriously need to become the boss and not let others have access or privileges to bank account or pot cupboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze-dragon Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 i wouldnt be able to stand living in a flatting situation like the one your in Pheonix. at our place me and Scott are the head tenants, what we say is what happens. weve had to kick numerous useless flatties out, if we had to go though all the stuff you do for old flatties leaving and new ones moving in, we would probably have killed some of them! not helpful in your situation admittedly, but stand up for yourself! atleast stand up for Rusty! causing a small scene about the situation is far more desirable to coming home to a silent house because they decided to let the cat in for a while, is it not? its not the cats fault, hes only being a cat.

phoenix44 Posted August 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 jeez who knows!! ha ha ha. Thing is they have been mucking around with the flat account so i dont want to deposit money into the account till I make sure all the authority for access has been stripped.

Caryl Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 I used to think I had missed out on a fun experience but, having heard a number of horror stories, am glad I never experienced flatting or flatmates! :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkfur Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 poor Phoenix my hard-won tip from flatting is to develop a power-base in your flat. Never let two people move in who are together or friends unless you have a majority on your side to outvote them/ beat them up if necessary.
