                      Hot water freezes faster than cold ! It is called the Mpemba effect :scratch:
                      The fact that hot water freezes faster than cold has been known for many centuries. The earliest reference to this phenomenon dates back to Aristotle in 300 B.C. The phenomenon was later discussed in the medieval era, as European physicists struggled to come up with a theory of heat. But by the 20th century the phenomenon was only known as common folklore, until it was reintroduced to the scientific community in 1969 by Mpemba, a Tanzanian high school pupil. Since then, numerous experiments have confirmed the existence of the "Mpemba effect", but have not settled on any single explanation.

                      It's all to do with the covalent bonds and the high gradient of conductivity and temperature. :ideaIPB: Simples :dbgrtmb:
