When salt and ice are added to an empty aluminum can and mixed together, the can becomes very cold, and frost begins to form on the outside of it very quickly. As water freezes, the attractions the ...

A snowflake’s ice crystals are symmetrical due to the lattice structure formed along and between water’s hydrogen bonds, leading to a hexagonal (six-sided) shape. As the ice crystal tumbles ...

the water vapor accumulates on the corners of the hexagonal ice crystal, and as those corners grow longer and farther, then there are more locations for the hydrogen molecules to bond, and this is ...

More crystals grow on top of these ice crystals to create hexagonal shapes called snowflakes ... the heat from the sun melts the snow and this mixture of water and snow creates slush.
