Because when something freezes, the atoms and molecules don't undergo a chemical change, they go through a physical change. By this, I mean that the individual atoms and molecules lose kinetic energy (energy that makes you move) in order to freeze. There is no chemical change here. Rather, the molecules and atoms are slowing down physically.

Is freezing point physical property a physical change a chemical property or a chemical change?
Freezing point is a physical property. The actual freezing is a physical change.
What is a chemical property hardness ability to react with oxygen color or freezing point?
Oxidation or reaction with oxygen is a chemical property
What is a physical property that tells you when a liquid would change into a solid?
It's point (freezing point)
Water freezing is an example of a?
boiling points are when a substance starts to boil. example- water 32degrees F A boiling point is when a liquid evaporates to form a gas. freezing points are when a substance starts to freeze. example- water 212degrees F A liquid freezes to a solid below its freezing point.
When is the freezing point of a liquid?
effect of pressure and impurties on the freezing and boiling point of liquids
Is freezing point physical property a physical change a chemical property or a chemical change?
Freezing point is a physical property. The actual freezing is a physical change.
Is freezing point chemical property?
yes it is.
Is freezing chemical or physical property?
I would say that freezing point is a boiling property because there is no scientific evidence to suggest that it is or indeed ever will be a chemical property. Freezing point is a chemical reaction. Therefor this is a debatable question. Different people may have different views. This is mine."Freezing point" is usually termed as "melting point" in scientific circles. Melting point is defined as the temperature at which the solid and liquid phase of a substance coexist at equilibrium under the pressure of their own vapors. Ice and water coexist at equilibrium at temperature of 32 degrees F when only their own vapor pressures are acting upon them. However, the temperature difference at atmospheric pressure is negligible. As you can see, melting point (freezing point) only depends on the physical conditions acting on the substance, therefore, melting point (freezing point) is a physical property. Melting point is effected (lowered) by the addition of other molecules or ions to the substance. This effect is physical because it depends only upon the number of particles (molecules etc) added and no chemical reaction is required.
Is freezing point a chemical or a physical property?

Is freezing point a physical property a physical change a chemical property or a chemical change?
I believe it is physical because you are not changing the chemical compound.
What is a chemical property hardness ability to react with oxygen color or freezing point?

It's point (freezing point)
What chemical principle is the deicing procedure based on?
Freezing Point Depression occurs when the freezing point of a liquid is lowered by adding another compound to it. The solution has a lower freezing point than that of the pure solvent.
Is a boiling point a chemical property of a sustance?
No, boiling points and freezing points are physical properties.
Scientifically what is meant by freezing?
Freezing point and melting point are the same thing. They are the name given to the temperature at which a chemical changes phase from a liquid to a solid (or vice versa).
Is boiling points and freezing point are an example of a chemical property b physical property c energy or d matter?
b physical property
