In doing an experiment, i found that mold wouldnt grow on Quaker breakfast cookies. I asked my biology teacher and he said that it had something to do with the preservatives in them. I found the preservative potassium sorbate in the breakfast cookies but can anyone tell me what it is doing so that mold won't grow on it???

Making it melt faster is the reachable one - blow scorching air on it, or cup your hands round it (without touching it) so the nice and comfortable temperature of your hands warms the ice, you'd be ready to take turns fantastic your hands throughout the dice. you could also redirect basic to the dice of ice, intensifying the nice and comfortable temperature of the mild. Like a magnifying glass pointing daylight hours on the ice. Making it melt slower without touching it, the conception is you're not to any extent further in a position to have something contact the ice ---- cover it with a cup. The ice will cool the interior of the cup making the ambient temperature throughout the ice lessen, therefore the ice will melt slower. The smaller and more effective insulated the cup the more effective, in case you'd be ready to relax the cup that permits you to also strengthen the ice from melting. What you're searching to make is a community throughout the ice to diminish again the nice and comfortable temperature change.
