What causes the ice to melt when you put salt on the road?
because water with a solute has a lower freezing point than pure water. the freezing temp of water is 0 C but salt water is about -1.8 C it lowers with the amount of salt added to the road.
If you mix water and rubbing alcohol will it freeze?
not at the normal freezing temp for water. the mixture will have a lower freezing temp
Does freezing lower the temp?
That's the definition of freezing. It means to lower the temperature of whatever is being frozen below the freezing point (32C for water).
What has the lowest freezing point salt water sugar water plain water?
Saturated salt water freezes at a lower temp than saturated sugar water, which freezes at a lower temp than plain water. So plain water will freeze first then sugar water then salt water. Thank you QUIRKIE @ answerbag.com
What causes a lower freezing point?
Salt.
How do you lower the freezing point into water?
Add salt.
If you add salt to water does it make freezing temperature higher or lower?
lower
Does salt water freeze at a higher or lower freezing point than freshwater?
Salt water freezes at a lower temperature because the high salt content in the water lowers the freezing point but not by a lot.
What temp is needed to have rain?
higher than freezing, lower than boiling
Does salt lower the freezing point of water?
Yes, salt does lower the freezing point water. This happens because some of the water is displaced by the salt thus decreasing the number of molecules able to be easily frozen.
What is the effect of salt in boiling and freezing temperatures?
The freezing point is lower and the boiling point is higher.
If you add salt to water does it make the freezing temperature higher or lower?
It make the boiling point higher, and the freezing point lower.
