Pure water will freeze at a higher temperature than a mixture containing water. Therefore, if a means for extracting energy from a sample of pure water is the same as a means for extracting energy from a sample of a mixture containing water, the pure water will freeze first.

Pure substance because pure substance doesn't have anything in it so it won't take so long to freeze around the things inside the impure substance.

Pure alcohol evaporates faster than pure water. A mixture of the two will slow the evaporation of the alcohol.


What kind of water freeze faster than any type of water?

Pure water. Anything you add to the water will depress the freezing point thus making it take longer to freeze.


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.


Why does water freeze faster than coke and maple syrup?

Because water is pure; solutes decrease the freezing point of solvents.

What will freeze faster plane water are salt water?

Adding salt to water lowers its freezing point by an amount that is dependent on the salt concentration. A saturated solution, for instance, will have a freezing point of about -20ºC compared with 0ºC for pure water. In any case, pure water will freeze earlier than salt water, because pure water has a higher freezing point.
