What does melting point and freezing point mean?
There are three states of matter: gas, liquid and solid. The melting point is where a solid turns to liquid. The freezing point is where a liquid turns to solid.
What term describes the physical change of a solid to a liquid at the melting point?
Simple: a transformation from a solid to a liquid.
How does melting differ from freezing?
For any given substance the melting point and the freezing point are the SAME temperature. However, if the substance is increasiung in heat to move from solid to liquid then it is the MELTING POINT. If that same substance is losing heat to move from liquid to solid then it is the FREEZING POINT. Similarly, when moving from liquid to gas ity is the boiling point , and when moving from gas to liquid it is the condensing point.
How do you define freezing point?
when it freezes
A liquid changes back into a solid by freezing at what point?
The FREEZING POINT ----- which for a pure substance (as opposed to a mixture)is the same thing as the melting point since they are both the point at which the liquid phase of a substance would be in equilibrium with the solid. For a mixture, the two would be different and you would get a freezing point range that started at the freezing point and ended at the melting point
Will a liquid turn to gas at its freezing point?
No it would be the boiling point. At freezing point it becomes solid
Are the melting point of solid and freezing point of liquid of a substance different?
yes the melting point of solid and freezing point of liquid of a substance is differ but in the case of water the melting and freezing point is same.
What does melting point and freezing point mean?
There are three states of matter: gas, liquid and solid. The melting point is where a solid turns to liquid. The freezing point is where a liquid turns to solid.
What do terms ''boiling point'' and '' freezing point '' mean?
Boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid changes into a gas. Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid.
What is the difference between a freezing and melting point?
When solid start to turn into liquid its melting point. When liquid start turning into solid its freezing point.
What is the melting point Freezing point?
Freezing and melting points are synonyms: at this temperature a solid become a liquid or a liquid become a solid.
What term describes the physical change of a solid to a liquid at the melting point?
Simple: a transformation from a solid to a liquid.
What is the same as the melting point of mercury?
The freezing point of salt is also its freezing point. This is the case with any substance, as it is the temperature that an element changes from the solid to liquid phase or the liquid to solid phase.
When does a liquid turn into a solid?
Liquid turns into solid when it reaches its freezing point. Example- the freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius.
Can water remain liquid below its freezing point?
It is possible to keep water as liquid below its freezing point - see related link.
Freezing point is the point at which a liquid turns into a solid What effect can change the freezing point?
Atmospheric pressure and the presence and concentrations of solutes affect the freezing point.
The freezing point of a substance is?
The freezing point of water in Celsius is 0 degrees Celsius. The freezing point in Fahrenheit is 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
