General Science / Re: Will hot water freeze faster than cold water?

I did the experiment... cold water froze first. Try it yourself. Why would anyone think hot water freezes faster? Let's give it a quick thought. If you start with water that is 1 degree above freezing, and another that is 30 degrees above freezing, is it not common sense that the water that only needs to drop 1 degree will do so faster than that which needs to drop 30?
