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).

Does the salinty leval effect how fast ice melts?

Yes, the higher the salinity level of water, the slower ice will melt because salt lowers the freezing point of water. This means that salty water must be colder than fresh water in order for ice to remain frozen.


When making frozen fruit punch the frozen mix is the -----and the water is the ------of the solution?

frozen mix is the solute The water/ice is the solvent.


Why does fresh water melt faster than salt water?

Because of the salt in the water. You see, salt heightens the boiling point of water yet lowers the freezing point of water. So, naturally, something that takes longer to freeze would take longer to warm up, hence the fact that it takes longer to melt. Salt is a pretty amazing chemical/food. Hope this helps!


Which type of water freezes first fresh or salt water?

Fresh water freezes at 0oC = 273 K Salt water freezes at about -4oC = 269K NB THere is a large body of chemistry dealing with cryoscopic constants; that is the depression of freezing point, between the pure substance and its dissolution . Similarly, there are also Ebullioscopic Constants dealing the with rising of boiling points between pure substances and solutions.


How can you keep pee fresh for longer periods of time?

To keep pee fresh for longer periods of time, it is important to store it in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator. This helps prevent bacteria growth and maintain its freshness. Additionally, drinking plenty of water can help dilute the urine and reduce odor.

Where does most fresh water on earth remain?

Frozen in the icecaps (in the form of ice at the poles).


Frozen salt water melt faster then frozen fresh water?

Salt lowers the melting or freezing point of water. The effect is termed 'freezing point depression'. Therefore frozen salt water melts faster and remain melted for long.


What portion of the fresh water is frozen into ice?

How can icebergs be used as fresh water?

salt water freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water so the fresh water gets frozen and not the salt water
