Frost wrote this poem with only 9 simple worded lines yet very powerful. It is deep‚ cruel‚ and it acknowledges certain kinds of truth.

Being well known for his use of nature to coat his poems‚ Frost certainly made his readers ponder what “Fire and Ice” is all about

after finishing an ice cold drink on a hot day that the ice had altered itself into water? Water is actually made up of lots of tiny particles.

When it gets cold enough they stick together and then what was once a liquid has now became a solid we all know as ice. Ice turns into water‚ back to a liquid‚ when the temperature of the ice cube is rising which

Thermochemistry: An Ice Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy D. F. Nachman 6/23/2010 Abstract: An ice calorimeter was used to study the reaction of magnesium metal and 1.00M sulfuric acid solution: Mg(s) + H2SO4(aq) →MgSO4(aq) + H2(g). We found the experimental molar enthalpy of reaction to be ΔH = –355 ± 17 kJ/mol at 0°C‚ 24% lower than the textbook value of ΔH° = –466.9 kJ/mol‚ reported at 25°C. Introduction Whether a chemical reaction occurs spontaneously or is driven by an outside

There are two choices. In his poem “Fire and Ice”‚ Robert Frost compares and contrasts the two destructive forces: fire and ice. In the first two lines of the poem he presents two options for the end of the world‚ “Some say the world will end in fire‚ Some say in ice”. I feel that he uses the term fire‚ not
