Because of the colligative properties, ocean water's freezing point is below that of normal "pure" water. The salts disrupt the formation of a lattice, and it requires a lower temperature for the water to freeze.
Antarctica is colder than the Arctic. The average temperature in Antarctica is around -49 degrees Celsius (-56 degrees Fahrenheit), while the Arctic's average temperature is around -34 degrees Celsius (-29 degrees Fahrenheit).
Because the Antarctic continent is a land mass covered with an ice sheet, and the Arctic is simply frozen sea ice, Antarctica is about -1 degree C (30 degrees F) colder than the Arctic.
Yes, by about 30 degrees F. This is because there is a continent in the Antarctic and there is only sea ice in the Arctic.
Five degrees Celsius is colder than eleven degrees Celsius. The lower the temperature in Celsius, the colder it is.
-15 degree Celsius is colder than -3 degrees Celsius.
-5 degrees Celsius is colder than -1 degrees Celsius. The lower the temperature in Celsius, the colder it is.
-18 degrees Celsius is colder than -12 degrees Celsius. The lower the temperature in degrees Celsius, the colder it is. In this case, -18 degrees Celsius is 6 degrees colder than -12 degrees Celsius.
Because the antarctic region is colder than the arctic and the Polar bear won't get the warmth it needs.
-11 degrees Celsius is colder than -10 degrees Celsius.
5 degrees Celsius is colder than 20 degrees Celsius.
The antarctic is colder than the arctic because of Antarctica, the continent, on which is stored 90% of the Earth's store of ice.
18 degrees Celsius is colder than 20 degrees Celsius.
