According to Wikipedia, "the freezing point depression is a colligative property, which means that it is dependent on the presence of dissolved particles and their number, but not their identity." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing-point_depression)

The solubility of sodium chloride is of course different from ethanol, as is the molar mass. However, if you add x molecules of ethanol it should have the same effect as x molecules of sodium cholride.

A wet climate in which temperatures alternate between below freezing and to above freezing.


Why does calcium chloride lower the freezing point of ice or water?

Calcium chloride dissociates and gets in between the water molecules. Its kind of like trying to stack a bunch of books with marbles in between.

How does sodium chloride defrost roads?

By lowering the freezing point of the water solution formed when water passes between the solid and liquid states. Such passages from one state to another occur constantly even when there is no visible water in contact with the ice, but in the absence of something like salt that lowers the freezing point of the liquid phase compared with the pure water formed when ice melts, the reverse passage of liquid water to ice is just as rapid, so that no readily visible melting occurs at any temperature below the freezing point of pure water.


What is the relationship between a material freezing point and it's melting point?

It is the same thing. A melting point or freezing point is when a "material's" temperature stays the same. Then you can decide whether you want to freeze it or melt it by increasing or lowering the temperature.------Thats how my science teacher tought us.

What is the product of calcium chloride and sodium chloride?

There is no reaction between them as they have same chloride anions.


Is there a difference between freezing point depression and freezing point?

This is simply because the evaporation enthalpy is bigger than the enthalpy of fusion. ΔTf = -Kf · m (m= molality) ΔTb = Kb · m (m= molality) what is important is that Kf is proportional to 1/Enthalpy of fusion and the sam is true for Kb (with enthalpy of evaporation)
