It's the flooding problem most of all. I'm in one of the few Manhattan co-ops that still allows washing machines and dryers and it's a wonderful thing to have it in my apartment. But many landlords, co-op board and condos don't permit them because of the flooding.
A couple of my friends and I made hot ice for our school science fair. We used sodium acetate. This project won first place at my schools science fair!!! Materials: Stove. Pot. A spoon. A glass cup. and Sodium acetate (you can find it online or in certain heat packs). How to do it: You heat water in a pot and put the sodium acetate in the water.
A. Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide. It will keep perishable foods colder and longer than traditional ice. It is an excellent refrigerant for shipping, camping and bulk use. Unlike traditional ice that melts into water, dry ice turns into a gas appearing like fog or steam.. Ice should be clear in color as well as odorless and tasteless. When purchasing ice, look for bags that are properly closed and secure (no drawstring ties). The bag should carry the manufacturerâs name and address. Also look for the International Packaged Ice Associaton (IPIA) symbol.
