The freezing point of pure water, at atmospheric pressure is 0 deg C. That of salt water depends on which salt and the concentration of the solution. The lowest temperature that can be obtained is -21 deg C.
Fresh water, because aqueous solutions have depressed freezing points.
Fresh water freezes at 0oC = 273 K Salt water freezes at about -4oC = 269K NB THere is a large body of chemistry dealing with cryoscopic constants; that is the depression of freezing point, between the pure substance and its dissolution . Similarly, there are also Ebullioscopic Constants dealing the with rising of boiling points between pure substances and solutions.
Of course not!!! If you added salt to fresh water, it wouldn't be fresh, anymore . . . gees.
The salt in the water lowers its freezing point, causing the water to become colder than 0 degrees Celsius. This rapid transfer of heat from the fresh water to the iced salt water speeds up the freezing process of the fresh water in the test tube.
sea water doesnt freeze faster than fresh water, fresh water freezes faster than sea water as it has a lower freezing point than sea water has as sea water contains salt which makes the boiling/freezing points increase therefore making the sea water freeze at a lower temperature.
yes they will both freeze
The freezing point of saltwater is lower than the freezing point of freshwater upto a specific ratio of salt & water. The freezing point goes below upto -11 C, but if you increase the salt content thereafter the freezing point will increase above 0 c. The sal and water mixture is usually termed as "Brine"
normal water
Ocean water contains salt, which lowers its freezing point compared to fresh water. This is because salt disrupts the formation of ice crystals, requiring colder temperatures for freezing to occur in ocean water.
Salt water has a higher salinity level compared to fresh water, which makes it denser and allows objects to float more easily. Fresh water has a lower freezing point than salt water, allowing it to freeze at a higher temperature.
This is because of the salt in the water
The difference is that fresh water will freeze at 0.c and salt will freeze to a lower temperature due to the presence of impurities (salt).
