Elevation has minimal affects on the freezing point of water as it doesn't deal with gas molecules as boiling does. Elevation affects the boiling point of water because the air pressure changes with elevation.

But interestingly, the boiling point of water decreases as the altitude increases above sea-level... Quirky, no? The reason for this is that boiling point also depends on air pressure which is lower at higher altitudes

∙ 15y agoNo,
the freezing temperature for water is always 0 degree celsius.
Depending on what substance it is, the freezing temperature changes,
but it is not affected by altitude.

Does it feel hotter in high altitudes?
Just returned from Mexico City. While temperature was around 75 to 80 degrees it seemed about 15 degrees warmer. So, yes it does seem hotter in higher altitudes. Steve
Which is higher 24.2C or 3.5C?
24.2 degees C is the higher temperature. 3.5 degrees C (Celsius) is 3.5 degrees above freezing. 24.2 degrees C (Celsius) is 24.2 degrees above freezing.
Why is mountains colder than lowlands?
Due to higher altitudes temperature decreases, so only we feel colder in mountains than low lands
Cooler temperatures are found at higher?
altitudes
How does the temperature change with altitude in the stratosphere?
the temperature already rise as you climb up in the stratosphere.
Does freezing feel colder in high altitudes?
No, though higher altitudes will be at the freezing point more often.
How is rain and hail connected?
hail is essentially frozen rain caused by sub freezing tempertures at higher altitudes freezing the precipitation as it falls.
Why do recipes change at higher altitudes?
The air pressure gets lower!
Why does condensation hapen?
TEMPERATURE AT HIGHER ALTITUDES IS LESS.HENCE CONDENSATION OCCU AT HIGHER ALTITUDES
What happens to the boiling point of water at altitudes above sea level?
The temperature decreases the higher you go.
Does a Weather balloon change size?
Yes, it does, due to the decreasing pressure at higher altitudes.
What happens to density at higher altitudes?
The density of air decreases at higher altitudes.
Why ice melts slowly at higher altitudes?
because there is low pressure at higher altitudes
If you add salt to water does it make freezing temperature higher or lower?
lower
How does the density of air change from lower to higher in altitudes?
The density of air decreases as altitude increases.
If you add salt to water does it make the freezing temperature higher or lower?
It make the boiling point higher, and the freezing point lower.
What is englands average tempreture?
England's average temperature is about 8* C to 11* C. In lower altitudes it is the lower temperature. In the areas around or near the coast , it is the higher temperature range.
