yes, it can. the reason people think it can't is because the sand at the beach is salty, and salt makes ice melt. so, with no salt involved, water can freeze

Does sand freeze when put in the freezer?

Sand will not freeze. Sand is already a solid, and so is already frozen. If you were to melt sand by heating it up more than 1700°C, you could then "freeze it" by putting it in the freezer. If it looks like sand is freezing in the freezer, it is because there is still water inside the sand that is freezing, and making the sand look like it's freezing together.

Sandstone cannot freeze as it is already a solid. Sometimes rainwater gets into the pores of a rock like sandstone. When the water freezes it expands and pushes on the rock.
