Yes it solidifies into ice at very low temperatures below about 150 K and low pressures.

Yes, hydrogen can freeze at its freezing (= melting) point.

Hydrogen:

Melting point 14.01 K, -259.14 °C, -434.45 °F

Boiling point 20.28 K, -252.87 °C, -423.17 °F

What element is used to freeze things?

Oxygen (I) Hydrogen and Helium are elements that are used to freeze things. Liquid helium is used to get things extremely cold.


Does hydrogen have a high or a low melting point?

hydrogen is a gas consequently doesn't have a melting point. You can't melt oxygen can you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actually oxygen can freeze and melt: its melting point is -361.8°F (-218.8°C). Even hydrogen can freeze and melt: its melting point is -434.49 °F(−259.16°C) These are very cold temperatures!


Are there any elements that can not freeze?

Hydrogen and helium cannot be solidified at normal pressures, however they will 'freeze' at temperatures near absolute zero under high pressures.


What is the atmospheric pressure needed to freeze hydrogen?

Not quite enough information here to give an accurate answer. Most things freeze at a higher temperature under higher pressure. But if you want to know at a given pressure when hydrogen will freeze then the temperature needs to be given as a constant. In other words hydrogen will freeze at different pressures depending on what temperature it is stored at. One method for freezing hydrogen gas is to drop it into frozen helium and raise the pressure. The heavier medium of helium separates downward as the freezing occurs. This provides a layer of frozen hydrogen. If colder cooling agents were used then less pressure would be needed. That is why I said you didn't provide enough information.

WHICH ONE Will freeze first saltwater or sugarwater?

Fresh water will freeze first. This is because when water freezes the hydrogen bonds form a rigid structure (Ice). Salt and sugar molecules interfere with this formation.
