What is colder 5 degrees F or 5 degrees C?
Water freezes at 32 oF or 0 oC. This is a good reference point. 5 oF must be lower than the freezing point of water but 5 oC is higher than the freezing point of water. Therefore, 5oF is colder.
Is 33 degrees Fahrenheit colder than 33 degrees Celsius?
Yes because 33 degrees Fahrenheit is almost freezing point
Is the freezing point of water in Fahrenheit greater than or less than the freezing point of water in Celsius?
The freezing temperature of water doesn't change. It just has different names. If you're speaking in Celsius, it's called zero. If you're speaking in Fahrenheit, it's called 32 degrees.
Why does cold water freeze fatser than hot water?
Simply because the temperature of cold water is closer to the freezing point than hot water is !
Why speed of velocity of sound is greater in hot water than the cold water?
The speed of sound is proportional to the density of the substance it's traveling through. Typically 'colder' water is more dense than 'hotter' water, and therefore sound would travel at a greater speed through colder water. However, there is a point right above the freezing temperature for water in which a decrease in temperature would cause a decrease in density due to the polar molecule behavior of water. Talking about the velocity of sound is a bit pointless, as it doesn't typically have a 'direction.'
Is salt water colder than fresh water?
The freezing point of salted water is lower than the freezing point of pure water; this is a phenomenon known as freezing point depression when a solute exist in the solution.
Is the freezing point of saltwater warm or cold than plain water?
colder
What is colder 5 degrees F or 5 degrees C?
Water freezes at 32 oF or 0 oC. This is a good reference point. 5 oF must be lower than the freezing point of water but 5 oC is higher than the freezing point of water. Therefore, 5oF is colder.
What is 4 degrees Celsius?
That's fairly cold; colder than the freezing point of water.
Why does water freeze before alcohol?
The freezing point of alcohol is much lower (colder) than the freezing point of water. The freezing point of water is 0 °C, but the freezing point of ethanol is -114 °C.See the Related Questions to the left for more information.think of density
How cold is an icecube?
If it's water ice and it is at sea level and one atmosphere of pressure, it is (or is extremely close to) zero degrees centigrade or it is colder. Nothing prevents ice from being colder than the freezing point, but above the freezing point it will be water.
Is the freezing point of mercury or butter closer to the freezing point of water?
Mercury because butter does not freeze. Butter does not have a freezing point. Butter is a fat that solidifies gradually as it gets colder and does not go through a phase change (freezing) abruptly like mercury or water.Although butter will become as solid as it gets at a temperature closer to that of the freezing point of water than the freezing point of mercury.
When the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit is it warmer or colder that the freezing temperature of water?
The freezing temperature of water is 0 degrees celsius or 32 degrees fahrenheit so it is colder than the freezing temperature of water.
Why does ocean water get colder than fresh water before freezing?
This is because of the salt in the water
How many degrees below freezing is 20 degrees F?
20° F is 12 Fahrenheit degrees and (6 and 2/3) Celsius degrees colder than the freezing point of water.
What is the solubility of Argon in water?
Liquid argon is much colder than the freezing point of water, and water ice has virtually no solubility in argon. Water is a polar compound, and argon is non-polar.
