Will soapy water freeze faster than fresh water?

It will freeze slower.. but not by a lot. When there are things such as ions / molecules dissolved in water, that mixture of water / substances will have a lower freezing point. Soap, because it is a nonpolar molecule will not SUBSTANTIALLY reduce the freezing point, but it WILL reduce the freezing point by a tiny bit. Because of this reduction in freezing pt, it will take slightly longer for it to freeze So yeah, soapy water will not necessarily freeze faster than tap water.
