Sounds impossible, but it’s real.

It’s called the Mpemba Effect, and science is still trying to fully explain it 👇

🌡️ What is the Mpemba Effect?


Under certain conditions, hot water can freeze faster than cold water.

This was first observed by a Tanzanian student, Erasto Mpemba, in the 1960s — and it blew physicists’ minds.



---


🧪 Possible reasons include:


Faster evaporation → less water to freeze


Convection currents that distribute heat more evenly


Changes in molecular structure due to heating


Supercooling differences



But here’s the twist — there’s no single proven explanation yet.

It still puzzles scientists today.

🧠 Bonus:


Even Aristotle and Descartes mentioned this effect thousands of years ago…

but no one believed it until modern experiments confirmed it.

So next time someone says science is boring, tell them:

Sometimes hot things freeze faster tha

n cold. And we’re still not sure why. 🤯
