Yes, thunk about an ocean versus a lake
Salt water freezes at a lower temperature than regular water, so it will take longer for salt water to freeze compared to pure water. The exact time can vary based on the salt concentration, but generally, salt water will take longer to freeze due to its lower freezing point.
It is NOT a case of 'longer' or 'quicker'. Salt water freezes at a LOWER temperature than pure de-ionised (distilled) water. The freezing point of pure de-ionised (distilled) water. is 0 oC salt water is ' -6 0C '. How long or quick it takes to go from 0 oC to -6 oC is a matter of time and the ambient temperature. NB There is a whole lot of physical chemistry devoted to the depression of freezing points Cryoscopic Constants. Conversely there is a whole lot of physical chemistry devoted to the elevation of boiling points Ebullioscopic Constants. pure water boils at 100 0C salt water boils at 102 oC (depending on conc'n of salt). The above temperatures refer only to water at standard temperature and pressure (STP).
it will take longer to freeze
On the contrary, it takes longer for salt water to freeze - it freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water does.
Salt and sugar can both help ice melt faster by lowering the freezing point of water. Vinegar, on the other hand, can lower the freezing point even more than salt or sugar, potentially making ice freeze longer when added to water.
Salt water freezes at a lower temp than fresh, meaning colder. It may freeze faster when chilled enough be cause the salt would disrupt the plateo of the water so it may freeze faster.
Yes, salt lowers the freezing point of water (makes it take longer to freeze)
Adding salt to water raises the freezing (and melting) point of water (to below 0 °C or 32 °F). Salty water will freeze at a lower temperature than pure water, thus making it take longer to freeze than the same amount of pure water.See the Related Question to the left for more information about how to solve for the exact change in freezing point.i think that yall are right but i think it takes longer becase the salt gose to the bottem and sits there causing it not to freeze for a while
i think the same as normal water or a bit longer 10 second longer i fink it could be 20
No, adding more salt to water actually lowers the freezing point, causing the water to freeze faster. This is because the salt disrupts the formation of ice crystals, making it harder for the water to freeze.
Hot water with salt will freeze faster than cold water because the salt lowers the freezing point of water. This means that the hot water with salt will need to cool to a lower temperature before it can freeze, making the freezing process faster compared to cold water.
'Faster' is NOT the correct word. Pure water freezes at a higher temperature , than salt water, BUT no FASTER.
