The melting point of water is lowered by 1.85 degrees Celsius if 29.2 grams of salt are dissolved in each Kg of water (called a "0.5 molal solution" of salt). So normal saline, a 0.9 molal solution), is lowered juts less thantwice this or 3.33 deg C.

So normal saline freezes at -3.33 deg C or 26 deg F.

What is the temp for liquid to go through each state of matter?

Different fluids have different freezing and boiling points. Water has its freezing point at 0 degree Celsius while saline water has its freezing point at -67 degree Celsius.


What is boiling and freezing point?

Freezing point is the temperature required to turn a liquid into a solid. Boiling point is the temperature required to turn a liquid into a gas. Almost everything has a freezing and boiling point. If you mean water well The freezing point is 0oC The boiling point is 100oC If you add a bit salt to the water to make saline then the freezing point is changed and lowered somewhere in the region of -10c (which is why we salt grit our roads in winter)

What colligative property is responsible for antifreeze?

Freezing point depression. When a solution is formed the molecules of the solute prevent the solution from freezing at its normal freezing point, it must be colder.
