Thermodynamics of supercooled water Now that it's been freezing outside for the last few days, I experimented a bit with supercooling. I've left a bottle of clean water outside for a few hours, and behold, when I shook the bottle, the liquid began to freeze rapidly, as expected.   However, not all of the water froze, only about half of it. This got me thinking.  I reasoned that happens because freezing releases heat, and that heat raises the temperature of the ice and remaning water to 0$^\circ$C, at which point the freezing stops.  To try to quantify this, set   $H_f = 334000 \frac{J}{kg}$, the "freezing heat" (enthalpy of fusion) of ice, $c_i = 2110 \frac{J}{kg\cdot K}$, specific heat of ice, $c_w = 4181 \frac{J}{kg\cdot K}$, specific heat of water, $M$, initial mass of supercooled water, $T_0$, initial temperature of supercooled water, $m$, mass of ice at a given moment, $T$, temperature at a given moment.   We suppose that the energy released by the freezing of a $\textrm dm$ mass of ice is used up by raising the temperature of both the already frozen ice ($m$) and the remaining water ($M-m$):  $$ \textrm dm \cdot H_f = c_i m \cdot\textrm dT + (M-m)c_w \cdot\textrm dT$$  By rearranging we get a linear differential equation for $m(T)$:  $$\frac{\textrm dm}{\textrm dT}+\frac{c_w-c_i}{H_f}m = \frac{c_w}{H_f}M$$  The solution of this equation, using the initial condition that at $T=T_0$, $m=0$:  $$ m = M \frac{c_w}{c_w-c_i}\left[ 1-e^{-\frac{c_w-c_i}{H_f}(T-T_0)} \right]$$  This looks neat, however, plugging in the actual values of the constants, $T = 0^\circ$C and $T_0 = -6^\circ$C, I get that little more than 7% of the water should freeze - as opposed to more than half, as I've observed. What's worse, the formula can be used to calculate the starting temperature required to freeze all the supercooled water: $$T_{all} = \frac{H_f \log\frac{c_w}{c_i}}{c_i-c_w}=-110.26^\circ \textrm C$$ which seems absurd.  Where is the error in the calculation above?  I've made a number of assumptions which may or may not hold:   the constants are really constant. I think this is a good approximation for $c_w$, a not that good but still acceptable approximation for $c_i$, and I suppose it holds to $H_f$ to some extent as well. there is no heat transfer with the environment, i.e. the bottle is a closed system. The process seemed fast enough (a few seconds at most) for this to be a good approximation. the system is in a thermal equilibrium at all times and the heat released by the freezing of the ice is distributed evenly in the emerging ice-water mixture. Now this is where I have doubts. Precisely because of the process happening so fast, this might not be true at all. However, acknowledging the presence of temperature variations makes the problem order of magnitudes harder: one has to solve a system of partial differential equations that take heat transfer, the shape of the bottle and \$deity knows what else into account. I am trying to find a way with QGIS to get the intersection area of more than 2 layers.  All the tools in QGIS take just the 2 input layers.  For example in the image below, I have 4 layers and I want to retrieve just the black area.   Furthermore, I need to retrieve the count attribute and add it to the intersected area attribute table (in this case 4)    I know there is a tool that does the trick in ArcGIS, but is there a QGIS solution? What is the order when doing $x^{y^z}$ and why? Overheard on an elevator today,     I didn't realize it was him.   Corrected by the know-it-all,     He.  "I didn't realize it was he."   The know-it-all then went on a rant about how everybody is a dolt for not knowing that.  I swear I have never heard this before in my life.  Is the know-it-all correct?    If so, why is "I didn't realize it was he," grammatically correct?  What rule makes "him" incorrect here? Center figure that is wider than \textwidth Draft mode for pgfplots What does ':' (colon) do in JavaScript? Correct usage of "lest" I have installed VirtualBox OSE on Ubuntu 11.04 and Windows XP pro as the virtual machine. Now I want to have a shared folder which can be accessed on both, my host Ubuntu machine, and my WinXP guest virtual machine.  How can I do that? Gaps between arrows and labels Wrap text around wide figure in two column I need to insert a figure into a two column document such that the figure partially spans both columns, and the text wraps around it.  It seems wrapfig does not work for this in two column, pullquote does not seem to either be exactly what I need.  I've tried using minipage with no luck. I tried to post an example of what I need to accomplish but since I am new this forum I cannot.  I'd be happy to send an image if this helps.   Any suggestions would be fantastically helpful! How to terminate a script? I am aware of the die() command in PHP which exits a script early.  How can I do this in Python? Insert distinct data into Combobox List How does the Southwest Airlines boarding process work? I'm flying this week on Southwest Airlines for the first time. I paid for "Early Bird" automatic checkin and the FAQ mentions something about "A" boarding passes. I have no idea what that means, and I know that Southwest doesn't have assigned seats.  How does the boarding process work and is there anything I should be aware of? Say I want to automate making extruded-text or a 3d logo from an image.    An answer that uses extruding a monochrome image of the ubuntu logo to an arbitrary number of units with a python script taking only the number of units and the monochrome image as a starting point will receive extra this was awesome re-posts from me.  This could be useful for lots of things. Cannot login to chat.meta.stackexchange.com; server error when trying to access chat homepage I just recreated my MSE account after having deleted it a few years ago. Now, I'm trying to log in to Meta Stack Exchange Chat, and whenever I try to do so, it just fails silently and I'm still logged out.  Additionally, in the same browser session that I'm supposedly logged out, I get a server error when accessing the chat homepage or the chat profile page of any user. I don't get any errors when trying to access any of these pages in a private session. I also was able to sign in to Stack Exchange Chat and Stack Overflow Chat without problems, since my accounts on SO and my parent site for SE chat haven't been deleted.  I think it might be because it's trying to sign me in to my old chat profile, which was not deleted, but that is associated to my old, deleted site account, which clash and thus cause it to fail.
