Does there occur any change in melting point of ice by variation of pressure?

Yes, increase in pressure causes the freezing point to drop.


Effect of double bond in fatty acids to its melting point?

Fatty acids with a double bond have a lower melting point compared to saturated fatty acids with no double bonds. This is because the double bond introduces a kink in the fatty acid chain, disrupting the close packing of molecules and making it easier for them to slide past each other, resulting in a lower melting point.


What temperature does water melt?

== == Pressure has an effect on the freezing point of water, though it isn't as substantial as the effect of pressure on boiling point. We could say that these values are at standard pressure, but realistically there is no noticeable difference of water's freezing point on various altitudes on earth. But it should be noted that if there are ions dissolved in the water, the freezing point will drop significantly due to the added solute. The melting point of water is the same as the freezing point of water; 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius.


How does elevation affect the melting point of a compound?

As elevation increases, atmospheric pressure decreases. This leads to a decrease in the boiling point of a compound because lower pressure means molecules can escape more easily. However, elevation generally has a minimal effect on the melting point of a compound.


What happen to the temperature of ice when add some salt?

The salt does not alter the temperature of the snow, but gets into the structure of the ice crystals, causing the water (ice remember is frozen water and snow is ice) to have a lower freezing point.

What is the melting point of impure sulfanilamide?

This question is rather ambiguous, as the amount of impurity would need to be known (i.e. is it 99% pure? 95%? 80%? etc). As the level of impurity rises however, the melting point (freezing point) will drop.


What is the difference between voltage forward voltage and voltage drop?

Voltage is the potential difference between the source & any point in the circuit. The forward voltage is the voltage drop across the diode if the voltage at the anode is more positive than the voltage at the cathode (if you connect + to the anode). Voltage drop means, amount of voltage by which voltage across load resistor is less then the source voltage.


What is the difference between a -10 and a -8 fast pitch bat?

The difference between these bats is the difference between the ratio of their weights and lengths. An example of a drop 10 bat you be on that is 33 inches in length and 23 ounces. A drop 8 bat would be 33 inches long, but weigh 25 ounces. Drop describes the ration between weight and length.


What is potential drop?

There is no difference between potential difference and potential drop. Both terms refer to the difference in voltage (i.e. potential) across a component. Depending on how you look at it, both terms can refer to positive or negative differences, i.e. drop, for instance, can be negative, implying a rise.


Is voltage the same as potential?

volt drop and potential difference are effectively the same thing, although the term volt drop is usually used in reference of what voltage has to occur for a diode to conduct, or what volt drop is expected across a long wire etc, potential difference is used to refer to the difference in voltage over a potential divider.


The difference in voltage between the two sides of a device is called?

Voltage drop.


What is the potential difference between 2 points in a circuit called?

What is the difference between a fumble and a interception?

an interception is when you steal the ball but a fumble is when you drop it


What is the difference between a drop kick and a punt?

A drop kick needs to hit the ground before it's kicked , where as a punt does not


What is the difference between a Easton Stealth Softball bat SCN7B and SCN6B?

SCN7B is a -9 drop SCN6B is a -10 drop


When magma forms within the mantle it is most often a result of?

Either the loss of confining pressure causing the melting point of the material to drop below the in-situ temperature or due to the presence of volatiles which enter the mantle where subduction occurs and also lower the melting point of the material.
