Best Answer

The boiling point of pure water is typically about 100 degrees Celsius. This value can vary based on factors such as pressure. Additionally, impurities in a sample of water can alter its boiling point.

32 degrees Fahrenheit, zero degrees Celsius.

True, but only under normal atmospheric pressure. Under high pressure water remains liquid at lower temperatures. This is why ice skates work: all your body mass acts through two thin blades so the pressure they exert on the ice is huge. At this pressure the ice cannot stay frozen so you get a very localised melting. The skate glides over the melt-water. When the skate has moved on, the pressure on the ice is removed and it re-freezes.

water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius of 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
0 and 100, respectively.

What is fathrenheit?

A man's name given to a scale of temperatures running from zero at the lowest melting point of ice to 100 for human body heat (but now said to tun from 32 for melting point of pure ice to 212 for the boiling point of water [at sea level].


The melting point of ice is a property?

The melting of ice is a physical property


Why are the temperatures of the melting point of ice boiling point of water called fixed point in calibrating the thermometer?

it is because they were consistent at melting and boiling point


What is the melting point of ice in water?

Ice is a solid, we all know it. But when it is heated until 0 degrees Celsius it starts to melt and the particles gain energy and the ice begins to become a liquid .i.e. water The melting point of ice is 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Which is 0 degrees Celsius. The melting point is also known as the ice point. The melting point of ice (if made from pure water) is 0 degrees Celsius. Anything below this would keep the ice frozen. less than 0C = ice....above 0C but less than 100C is water (liquid)....and above 100C is gas (water vapor)... At standard atmospheric pressure, water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius (32 deg F), and thus ice melts at the same temperature. Basically, ice melts at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, or 0 degrees Celsius.... Anything above zero.


Can heat be added to a solid liquid and gas without changing in teperature?

That is possible when there is a change of state. For example, if you have ice at its melting point, or a mixture of ice and water at its melting point, if you add heat, the energy will be used to melt the ice, not to increase the temperature.

How come ice with salt melts faster than ice with no salt?

Since impurities decrease melting point of solid ,so ice mixed with salt has lower melting point then pure ice .

Why does plain ice melt faster than sugar ice?

Because when you add sugar to ice it is no longer ice it is 'sugar ice' and therefore has a different melting point from pure ice.


What effect does sugar have on ice?

yes but not to the same extent. solutes prevent ice formation by lowering the melting point of water. sugar water does have a lower melting point than pure water but it is not as effective as simpler salts because it is less soluble. (conc. of solutes is related to the melting point)

Why will ice melt when the melting point is lowered?

when we lower the melting point of of ice for example from 00C TO -20C, as the temperature is 00C that is above the new melting point of ice so ice get melt


The temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid is called the what?

Simply, the melting point. Think of an ice cube. The melting point is the temperature at which the ice cube MELTS into a liquid.


Freezing point of pure substance 21 degrees what is the melting point?

The melting point would also be 21 degrees because the freezing point and melting point of a pure substance is exactly the same.
