Why does water freeze before juice?

Because juice is mostly a solution of water, sugar, & other compounds. These other compounds added to water lowers the freezing point so it will freeze at a lower temperature than pure water. Look up freezing point depression for more information.


Will soapy water freeze faster than fresh water?

It will freeze slower.. but not by a lot. When there are things such as ions / molecules dissolved in water, that mixture of water / substances will have a lower freezing point. Soap, because it is a nonpolar molecule will not SUBSTANTIALLY reduce the freezing point, but it WILL reduce the freezing point by a tiny bit. Because of this reduction in freezing pt, it will take slightly longer for it to freeze So yeah, soapy water will not necessarily freeze faster than tap water.


What happens to water when antifreeze is added to it?

The boiling point increases and the freezing point decreases.


What is the freeze point in Celsius?

The freeze point of water? 0 degrees.


Can antifreeze get old?

Yes. The purpose of antifreeze is to prevent a rigid enclosure from undergoing physical stresses and catastrophic deformation due to the expansion that occurs when water turns to ice. Most antifreezes are chemical compounds made to be added to water to reduce the freezing point of the mixture below the lowest temperature that the system is likely to be exposed to. However when antifreeze is exposed to extreme temperatures it can freeze or boil, that is the property of every single liquid on the planet.


How do you freeze syrup?

Syrup has a high concentration of sugars which make it difficult to freeze. The more contaminants added to water, the lower the freezing point. So if sugar is added to water ie syrup the freezing point is less than 0 oC. Depending on the concentration of the syrup will determine if it can be frozen in a domestic freezer ~ -18 oC.


Do compounds have their own physical properties?

Yes water has a certain boiling point, a certain freezing point, it is colorless. these are physical prop. another liquid, like pure ethanol, will not freeze at the same temp nor does it boil at the same temp as water but it is colorless just like water. both are compounds


Does the temperature must drop 0 C for water to freeze when a solute is dissolved in the water?

A solute added to water decreases the freezing point.


Will purified water freeze?

Yes. Very, very pure water may remain liquid below the normal freezing point until a nucleation point (a speck of dust, an irregularity in its container, or even just a shock wave from being jostled) is added, but it will definitely freeze.


Are there chemicals in freeze dried coffee?

There are plenty of crazy stories out there about chemicals added to freeze dried coffee. There is no reason for anything to be added to coffee when it is freeze dried; the entire point of freeze drying is that it preserves the product naturally. The process is: they make some coffee; they freeze it; they dry it. In short, whatever chemicals are in freeze dried coffee are only those - and exactly the same as those - found in "fresh" coffee.


Can you freeze water at its boiling point?

No, the water's molecules are moving too fast at its boiling point to freeze.


How will water freeze?

water will freeze when it is at its freezing point which is 0 degrees
