Why is the freezing point for ocean water lower than fresh water?
Because ocean water contains 3.5 % salt.
Which water freezes faster salt water or fresh water and why?
Fresh water freezes at a higher temperature than salt water. This is because the presence of impurities in water lowers its freezing point.
Why is freeze thaw?
Fresh water (for instance) will freeze and turn to ice when the temperature drops below freezing point. The ice will thaw (melt back into water) when the temperature rises above freezing point.
Why sea water freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water?
The salt present in sea water lowers its freezing point.
Why does sea water freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water?
