Water molecules lock into each other when frozen. They form diagonal lattices and crystal structures.

What is the reaction of salt in the water at freezing temperature?

Salt doesn't react with water.


Is reacting a metal with water the same a reacting it with oxygen?

Not all metals react with water, but some, such as metallic sodium, do react quite vigorously with water. In a sense it is true that when metals react with water it is the same as reacting with oxygen, because the water molecule (H2O) does contain oxygen, and it is the oxygen in the water molecule with which metals react. Metals do not react with the hydrogen content of the water molecule, so when metal reacts with water, hydrogen gas is produced as a byproduct. It just bubbles out of the water.


What chemical react when water becomes ice?

Freezing of water doesn't involve any chemical.


Which part of a water molecule becomes solid as it freezes?

When water freezes, water molecules become attached to other water molecules. The phenomenon of freezing occurs on a larger scale than the molecular; you cannot see it by looking at only one molecule. All you would notice about a single molecule is that it is not moving around as much as it used it, before freezing.


What is the result on mixing a water molecule and a oxygen molecule together?

When a water molecule and an oxygen molecule are mixed together, they can react to form hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This reaction typically requires energy input, such as in the presence of a catalyst or under certain conditions.


When two water molecules react what do they create?

Two water molecules can react to from hydrogen bonds. If one water molecule acts as an acid and donates a proton to another water molecule then hydronium ions an hydroxyl ions can be formed as well.


What reaction is glucose galactose to lactose and water?

Glucose and galactose react to form lactose, a disaccharide composed of one glucose molecule and one galactose molecule, along with a molecule of water. This reaction is a condensation reaction, where a water molecule is removed to form the new compound lactose.


When water freezes it undergoes?

- At the freezing point water become from a liquid a solid.- Freezing is accompanied by an expansion, the volume is greater.- Freezing is a physical process, the nature of the molecule remain unchanged.- Water freezing is an endothermic process.


When 2 hydrogen molecules react with 1 oxygen molecule what is the product?

The product of this reaction is 2 water molecules (H2O).


What do you do if you are in freezing water?

Get out of the freezing water.


What does A condensation reaction typically produces?

A condensation reaction typically produces a larger molecule by combining two smaller molecules and eliminating a small molecule like water. It is a reaction where two molecules react to form a larger molecule with the loss of a small byproduct such as water, alcohol, or ammonia.


How water is formed when hydrogen gas is burnt?

when 2 molecules of hydrogen gas and one molecule of oxygen react with each other then they form water(H2O)
