Salt water has a much lower freezing point than fresh water. If freshwater is saturated with salt, the freezing point is minus 21.1 degrees celcius. The chemistry is complex, but in simple terms, saltwater becomes a different substance to fresh water, they have different chemical properties.
What else can I help you with?
Why did the salt water freeze but the salt did?
Salt lowers the freezing point of water, meaning it needs to be colder for the salt water to freeze compared to pure water. The salt itself does not freeze because its freezing temperature is much lower than that of the salt water solution.
If salt water freezes does the salt freeze to?
If the salt is still in the water it will freeze inside the water so its technically frozen
When will water not freeze?
if you add salt to water, it will freeze at a lower temperature.. i do not think it is possible at a temperature below zero degrees.
Does salt water freeze faster than sugar water?
no salt water does not freeze faster than sugar.
Which will freeze first-sugared water or salt water?
salt water
What freeze faster salt water or sugar water?
Salt water will.
Will salt and water freeze?
Yes, salt water does indeed freeze. The addition of a solute (salt in this case) to a solvent (water) will always lower the solution's freezing point. This just means it needs to be colder than 32oC to freeze the salt water.
Which freeze faster stronger salt water or weak salt water?
weak salt water
Which water will freeze faster cold water with salt or normal water with salt?
normal water with salt
Does salt water or plain water freeze faster?
Pure water freeze faster.
Why water freezes before salt water?
Water freezes before salt water because adding salt lowers the freezing point of water. This means that salt water needs to reach a lower temperature in order to freeze compared to pure water. As a result, pure water will freeze at a higher temperature than salt water.
What freeze faster salt or water?
'Faster' is NOT the correct word. Pure water freezes at a higher temperature , than salt water, BUT no FASTER.
