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.


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.


Why does the Arctic Ocean freeze and the Pacific does not?

As water freezes salt is released increasing the percentage of salt in the ocean water, the higher the percentage of salt the lower the freezing temperature of the water. The cycle of water freezing -> salt being released -> more water freezing reaches equilibrium at witch point the temperature necessary to freeze more water is lower then the air temperature.


How do the solutes affect the frezzing pointand boiling points?

Salt water freezes at a lower temperature and boils at a higher temperature.


Why the sea water boil at a slightly higher temperature than water from from a freshwater lake?

The salt acts as a catalyst which prevents the water from boiling at the lower temperature.


Does drinking water boil at a lower temperature than salt water?

Yes, drinking water does boil at a lower temperature than salt water.


What is the temperature of water when it begins boiling?

The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit. However, water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitude. Salt water boils at a higher temperature than pure water.


What is the boiling and melting temperature of water with and without salt added to it?

without salt water melts at 0 c or 32 f. It boils at 100 c or 212 f. Depending on the amount of salt, it melts at a lower temperature and boils at a higher temperature.


How does fresh water freezes faster than salt water?

When water has a substance dissolved in it, it freezes at a lower temperature. Salt water has salt dissolved in the water, so it freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water.


Why can we separate salt from water?

Water evaporates at a MUCH lower temperature than salt.


Goes salt lower boiling temperature of water?

Salt will lower the melting point, and raise the boiling point of water.
