Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What actually happens when water freezes? Why does ice float? How can animals survive temperatures that would be dangerous for us - and how cold can scientists make something in a laboratory?The Science of Cold takes children beyond snowy weather and into the fascinating physics, chemistry, biology, and technology of low temperatures.Young readers will discover what changes inside matter as temperature falls, how ice crystals grow, why every snowflake develops its remarkable structure, and how enormous glaciers can slowly move across the land.Then the journey gets colder.Travel to Antarctica, meet animals built to survive below zero, discover what frostbite does to the body, experiment with the strange behavior of dry ice, and enter the extraordinary world of cryogenics.Inside, children will explore: What "cold" actually meansWhat happens to molecules as temperature dropsHow liquid water becomes solid iceWhy ice floats instead of sinkingHow ice crystals and snowflakes formHow glaciers grow and moveWhat makes Antarctica so extremeHow animals survive freezing environmentsWhat frostbite is and why extreme cold can be dangerousWhy dry ice is different from ordinary iceWhat cryogenics isHow scientists create and study extremely low temperaturesFrom a tiny snowflake to an Antarctic ice sheet, The Science of Cold reveals that cold isn't simply the absence of warmth - it changes how matter behaves, how landscapes form, how living things survive, and what scientists are able to discover.A richly illustrated science adventure for curious readers ages 5-10.
