Best Answer

If the temperature were lowered gradually enough for the substances to be in (approximate) thermal equilibrium, then nitrogen would freeze first. Nitrogen has an observed normal freezing point of 63.05 K, and oxygen has a freezing point of 54.85 K. As the temperature is lowered, nitrogen's higher freezing temperature occurs first.
