Question

How do you increase the rate of cooling?

Answer 1

The factors that affect the rate of cooling:

• Material of the container- The cooling rate is directly affected by the material used to construct the container. The metals container has fast heat loss as compared to the plastic.
• The thickness of the container- The thinner container has a high cooling effect.
• The temperature of the surroundings- If the surroundings have a lower temperature then the cooling rate of molecules will be high.

Hence, by these factors cooling rate can be increased.
