Water doesn't freeze at 0°C when it contains dissolved materials due to a phenomenon known as freezing point depression. The presence of solutes, such as salts or sugars, disrupts the formation of ice crystals, requiring a lower temperature to achieve the solid state. This means that the more solute present, the lower the temperature at which the solution will freeze. As a result, the freezing point of the solution is lower than that of pure water.
