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.
because the salt is harder to freeze
Sugar water freezes faster than salt water. However, regular tap water will freeze faster than either salt, or sugar water.
when it is in the form of ice. When water freezes it expands. If a rock has a crack in it and water goes in the crack and freezes, it will expand and melt over and over. eventually it can split the rock.
The molecular bonds cause water to expand when it freezes.
When it freezes.
As the water freezes, it will expand.
the reason salt water freezes is because of the amount of salt in the 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.
Yes, it will expand.
I think it is fresh water freezes faster because the salt melts ice.
The crack would expand because the water in the rock, as it freezes, expands.
Its very unusual for a substance to expand when it freezes, water is just odd that way. Its just a property of water, its moleucles expand in the area they take up and take up more space.
Fresh water freezes at 32°f (0°c) at sea level. Sea water freezes at 28.4°f (-2°c) at sea level. Salt water depends on the concentration of salt. At maximum saturation salt water (23.3% by weight) freezes at -5.98°f (-21.1°c).
the salt prevents the water from getting cold
because the salt is harder to freeze
Sugar water freezes faster than salt water. However, regular tap water will freeze faster than either salt, or sugar water.
