How to make Hot Ice

Hot ice is made using sodium acetate, which is a salt created from the reaction between sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and acetic acid (vinegar).

When this reaction occurs, sodium acetate appears to freeze like ice as the cold solution turns from liquid to solid. This is an exothermic process, meaning that the solid structure is warm to the touch.
