Antifreeze contains chemicals which have a much lower freeze temperature than just water. That resists freezing when the vehicle is not being operated. During operation, when coolant cycles through the system, heat from the engine is transferred to the coolant... this heats up the coolant... that heat is then exchanged to the air which blows through the radiator fins.
It stops your car from freezing and not starting up in cold weather
A sentence for the word antifreeze may be, " What is the best antifreeze to use in drinking water?" Antifreeze is a liquid which is used to lower the freezing point.
During Winter or whenever it is cold to lower the freezing point of the water in your car radiator. :] F
The purpose of adding antifreeze to the water in a car's radiator is to lower the freezing point of the coolant, preventing it from freezing in cold temperatures. Additionally, antifreeze raises the boiling point, allowing the engine to operate at higher temperatures without overheating. It also provides corrosion protection for the radiator and engine components, ensuring longevity and efficient operation of the cooling system.
they do this to lower the freezing temp of the water so then it wouldd have to drop below 0 degrees.
increases, and lowers
Putting 100% "straight" antifreeze in your car's radiator will expose the cooling system to freezing at a much higher temperature than would the appropriate and recommended mix of roughly 50/50 antifreeze and water. Antifreeze works best WITH water.
The antifreeze provides corrosion protection until the corrosion package is " used up " and it raises the boiling point and lowers the freezing point of the water
It is a noun (a liquid substance) but may be used as a noun adjunct (e.g. antifreeze spills).
We always renew the antifreeze in our car before winter.
Antifreeze keeps your coolant from freezing. It keeps your coolant more "fluid".
