Solution
Latent heat is the heat energy absorbed or released during the state change of a substance.
- Ice at 273 K will absorb latent heat energy.
- Water at 273 K will absorb less heat energy than ice at 273 K.
- Hence, ice at 273 K is more effective in cooling than water at the same temperature.
