The ocean is larger than a lake. Therefore, being larger it can absorb more heat. That is why a lower temperature is needed to freeze it.

Why is the temperature needed to freeze ocean water lower than the temperature needed to freeze the surface of a freshwater lake?

because the ocean has salt in it rather than freshwater lake Because fresh water on the surface of a lake is frozen. Under similar conditions, salt water is not frozen.

Why is the temperature needed to freeze ocean water lower than the temperature to freeze the surface of a fresh water lake?

Ocean water has a lower freezing point than fresh water due to the presence of salt, which lowers the freezing point of water. The salt in ocean water lowers the freezing point by making it more difficult for water molecules to form solid ice crystals. This is why ocean water typically needs to reach a lower temperature to freeze compared to fresh water.


How long does it take for fresh water to freeze?

Many variables affect the freezing of " fresh water ". It depends on the surface temperature of " fresh water ", whether still or moving, and the rate of the air temperature dropping below freezing.

What are the constants between salt water and fresh water in regards to freezing?

The difference is that fresh water will freeze at 0.c and salt will freeze to a lower temperature due to the presence of impurities (salt).

It will freeze at a lower temperature.


Why is freeze thaw?

Fresh water (for instance) will freeze and turn to ice when the temperature drops below freezing point. The ice will thaw (melt back into water) when the temperature rises above freezing point.


Does tea or juice or fresh water or salt water freeze faster?

Fresh water is probably the likely candidate. If you add salt to a liquid, its freezing point lowers. Meaning, it would need a lower temperature for it to freeze.
