That's the definition of freezing. It means to lower the temperature of whatever is being frozen below the freezing point (32C for water).
higher than freezing, lower than boiling
Because it's SALT...are you expecting it to freeze like *SNAP* that? :)
they do this to lower the freezing temp of the water so then it wouldd have to drop below 0 degrees.
Freezing temp for Celsius = 0 degrees (32 degrees Fahrenheit)
Most antifreeze has a chemical that freezes at a very lower temp than plain water.
Alcohol has a lower freezing point than water, so when it is added to a cold drink, it can lower the overall temperature of the liquid, causing it to freeze more easily. The freezing point of the mixture becomes lower than the freezing point of water alone, resulting in the straw freezing.
Freezing rain occurs when the temputer ins below freezing
Well, isn't that a happy little question! When you mix water and rubbing alcohol together, the freezing point of the solution will be lower than that of water alone. This means it will be harder for the mixture to freeze compared to plain water. Just like creating a beautiful painting, experimenting with different materials can lead to interesting results!
Some anti-freezes can prevent freezing up to -125° Fahrenheit. However, the average temperature is much lower.
It is lower.
By bringing its' temp above freezing.
