∙ 13y agoYes it does. Think about this. In the winter time, ice is formed. Ice is frozen water. What is added to that ice to melt it? Salt. When the salt is added, it lowers the freezing point of the water which will allow it to be melted easier.

∙ 15y agoYes, adding a solute to water will generally lower its freezing point. Freezing point lowering is a colligative property, which means that the extent of the effect depends primarily on the concentration of the solute and not the nature of the solute particles.

When a solute dissolves into water the freezing point does what?
When a solute is dissolved into water the freezing point will lower. In other words, if you want to freeze a solution of water and some solute, you will have to cool it beyond the freezing point of pure water.
What temperature does water melt?
== == Pressure has an effect on the freezing point of water, though it isn't as substantial as the effect of pressure on boiling point. We could say that these values are at standard pressure, but realistically there is no noticeable difference of water's freezing point on various altitudes on earth. But it should be noted that if there are ions dissolved in the water, the freezing point will drop significantly due to the added solute. The melting point of water is the same as the freezing point of water; 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius.
Does the temperature must drop 0 C for water to freeze when a solute is dissolved in the water?
A solute added to water decreases the freezing point.
Why does the freezing point of water drop when salt is added?
As explanation may be the interactions between the molecules of water and the molecules of the solute; the entropy of the solute is then decreased.
What is the effect of decreased pressure on boiling point and freezing point of water?
water can be compressed and it would make the freezing point and the boiling point lower

Why does the freezing point of water lower when solute is added?
the solute gets in the way of the water turning to ice

Is salt water colder than fresh water?
The freezing point of salted water is lower than the freezing point of pure water; this is a phenomenon known as freezing point depression when a solute exist in the solution.
Does the temperature must drop 0 C for water to freeze when a solute is dissolved in the water?
A solute added to water decreases the freezing point.
What is the effect of the addition of a non volatile solute?
what is the effect of the addition of a non volatile solute to the boiling point of water?
What effect does salt have on the freezing pont of water?
It lowers the freezing point.
Why does the freezing point of water drop when salt is added?
As explanation may be the interactions between the molecules of water and the molecules of the solute; the entropy of the solute is then decreased.
What are the effect of impurities on the freezing point of water?
An impurity, such as salt lowers the freezing point of water by interfering with the lattice structure water makes with hydrogen bonding at it's freezing point.
What is the effect of decreased pressure on boiling point and freezing point of water?
water can be compressed and it would make the freezing point and the boiling point lower
How does the presence of dissolved sodium chloride affect the boiling and freezing point of water?
Dissolved solute (NaCl, salt) will raise the boiling point and lower the freezing point of water. This is known as a colligative property.
When urea is added to water the freezing point is decrease why?
This is a colligative property. Adding a solute will increase the boiling point and decrease the freezing point. The reason has to due with intermolecular forces, and interruption thereof. When water molecules have solute in between them, the temperature has to be lower than normal in order for them to freeze.
