Wiki User
∙ 11y agoAnything that is dissolved in water will cause the boiling point to rise (and the freezing point to lower).
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoMelting and freezing are synonyms; impure water freeze at a lower temperature than pure water.

Would the freezing point of stearic acid be higher or lower if impured?
if the stearic acid were impure, would the freezing point of stearic acid be higher or lower than the value you obtain in this experiment.
Why is the melting point of impure water lower than the melting point of pure water plus how can this be explained?
the melting point of IMPURE water is lower because excess chemicals and sediments (and whatever else making it impure) get in the way of the water freezing directly by making it so that when the the water froze, it also had to freeze the sediments and chemicals (or else it wouldn't be frozen)
Who has higher melting point Pure or Impure Substance?
The melting point of an impure compound is almost *always* lower than that of a pure compound.
What is the freezing point or the melting point 0 degrees Celsius?
Water. Depending on whether you cooling ( freezing point) or whether you are warming (from ice to melting point).
If you add salt to water does it make the freezing temperature higher or lower?
It make the boiling point higher, and the freezing point lower.
Would the freezing point of stearic acid be higher or lower if impured?
if the stearic acid were impure, would the freezing point of stearic acid be higher or lower than the value you obtain in this experiment.

Why salt and sand are sprinkled on roads in winter?
because it helps to decrease the freezing point and if water is impure than its impurities lower the melting point.
Who has higher melting point Pure or Impure Substance?
The melting point of an impure compound is almost *always* lower than that of a pure compound.
What is the effect of the salt by usingthe concept of melting point?
Salt water has a lower freezing point and a higher boiling point.
If a substance is impure what will be the two effects on its melting point compared to the literature value?
the impurities will lower the melting point value.
What will melt faster pure or impure naphthalene?
Remember that the more impure the lower the melting point.
What is the freezing point or the melting point 0 degrees Celsius?
Water. Depending on whether you cooling ( freezing point) or whether you are warming (from ice to melting point).
Why do substances with higher density have a higher boling and freezing point?
Um... who says they do? Lead has a significantly higher density than aluminum but a considerably lower melting point.
Is the freezing point of ice cream lower or higher than the freezing point of water?
It is lower.
Do nonmetals have higher melting points or lower boiling points?
lower melting points
If you add salt to water does it make the freezing temperature higher or lower?
It make the boiling point higher, and the freezing point lower.
