the force of attraction between its molecules becomes strong enough to overcome the energy of motion that its molecules have when the substance is in its liquid state, molecules are locked into rigid crystalline formations.

Are molecules moving?
Simply, no. Molecules will stop moving when the temperature of the substance reaches its "freezing" point, eg., 0C for water or -40C for mercury.
What occurs at the freezing point of a substance?
At the freezing point a substance become a solid.
Is the melting point the same temperature as the freezing point for a substance?
freezing ur mamas as
What is its melting point when the freezing point of a substance is 68C?
The freezing point is 680C
Are the melting point of solid and freezing point of liquid of a substance different?
yes the melting point of solid and freezing point of liquid of a substance is differ but in the case of water the melting and freezing point is same.
What freezing point of a substance is the same as its?
(Melting Point)
A liquid changes back into a solid by freezing at what point?
The FREEZING POINT ----- which for a pure substance (as opposed to a mixture)is the same thing as the melting point since they are both the point at which the liquid phase of a substance would be in equilibrium with the solid. For a mixture, the two would be different and you would get a freezing point range that started at the freezing point and ended at the melting point
Is the melting point the same teperature as the freezing point for a substance?
Yes, when the substance is pure
True or False- The freezing point of a substance is equal to the melting point of a substance?
It is true.
Is freezing chemical or physical property?
I would say that freezing point is a boiling property because there is no scientific evidence to suggest that it is or indeed ever will be a chemical property. Freezing point is a chemical reaction. Therefor this is a debatable question. Different people may have different views. This is mine."Freezing point" is usually termed as "melting point" in scientific circles. Melting point is defined as the temperature at which the solid and liquid phase of a substance coexist at equilibrium under the pressure of their own vapors. Ice and water coexist at equilibrium at temperature of 32 degrees F when only their own vapor pressures are acting upon them. However, the temperature difference at atmospheric pressure is negligible. As you can see, melting point (freezing point) only depends on the physical conditions acting on the substance, therefore, melting point (freezing point) is a physical property. Melting point is effected (lowered) by the addition of other molecules or ions to the substance. This effect is physical because it depends only upon the number of particles (molecules etc) added and no chemical reaction is required.
What decreases with increasing attraction between molecules?
Freezing point raised Boiling point raised etc. As the molecules in the substance is more strongly bonded together and is hard to separate.
The freezing point of a substance is?
The freezing point of water in Celsius is 0 degrees Celsius. The freezing point in Fahrenheit is 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
