Methanol will freeze at negative 143 (Fahrenheit)/ negative 97 (Celsius). If it is added to water (freezing point of 32*F/0*C) then it will make the water freeze at a lower temperature.
So yes, methanol will lower the freezing point of any liquid that freezes at a higher temperature than methanol. But methanol cannot lower the freezing point of any liquid that will still be liquid at -143*F/-97*C.

What is freezing point constant of methanol?
The freezing point of methanol depends on its concentration in water.For example for 10% methanol by mass in water, the freezing point is -7 degree centigrade. For 100% methanol by mass, the freezing point is -98 degree centigrade.Refer to link below for more details.
When compared to pure water what will a 0.5 M solution of potassium chloride have a. lower boiling point b. lower freezing point c. higher capor pressure d. lower osmotic pressure?
a lower freezing point
Does salt affect the temperature of water -boiling point - freezing point?
i would opt for the Freezing point. salt decreases the freezing point of water. so if water would normally freeze at 0C, saltwater would freeze at -3C.
When comparing the freezing point and the boiling point of different substances the?
boiling point is always lower.
Does antifreeze have a lower or higher freezing point than water?
Much lower or else there would be little point in using as antifreeze
What will alcohol do to the freezing point of water?
No it would lower it. This is why de-icer is often alcohol (methanol) based. Alcohol turns to a solid (freezes) at a lower temperature then pure water. Freezing point of pure methanol is -98C

Why methanol uses as brine?
Coz, methanol reduces the freezing point of the mixture to under -30o C
How much methonal is needed to lower freezing point of fresh water?
Methonal does not exist. Methanol (CH3OH) or methanal (CH2O) do exist, which one do you mean.
Is the freezing point of ice cream lower or higher than the freezing point of water?
It is lower.
What is methanols freezing point?
Methanol will freeze at -97 degrees celcius.
Which has the lower freezing point oxygen or ethanol?
Oxygen has a lower point.
Why do race cars use methanol?
methanol has a lower burning point, so an engine running on methanol can make more power with less heat.
Which solutes will lower the freezing point of water the most?
Aluminum bromide (AlBr3) will lower the freezing point of water the most.
Can the freezing point be lower than its boiling point in a constant pressure?
At a constant pressure, the freezing point is always going to be lower than the boiling point.
What temperature does liquid methanol turn to gas?
Pure Methanol has a freezing point of -97.7oC.
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.
