Yes, water can be cooled below its freezing point without freezing immediately. This is known as supercooling. When the water is disturbed or a seed crystal is introduced, it will quickly freeze.

Is salt water colder than fresh water?

The freezing point of salted water is lower than the freezing point of pure water; this is a phenomenon known as freezing point depression when a solute exist in the solution.


What is colder 0ºC or 0ºF?

0ºC is colder than 0ºF. 0ºC is the freezing point of water, while 32ºF is the freezing point of water.


Is the freezing point of saltwater warm or cold than plain water?

colder


What is 4 degrees Celsius?

That's fairly cold; colder than the freezing point of water.


How cold is an icecube?

If it's water ice and it is at sea level and one atmosphere of pressure, it is (or is extremely close to) zero degrees centigrade or it is colder. Nothing prevents ice from being colder than the freezing point, but above the freezing point it will be water.


What is colder 5 degrees F or 5 degrees C?

Water freezes at 32 oF or 0 oC. This is a good reference point. 5 oF must be lower than the freezing point of water but 5 oC is higher than the freezing point of water. Therefore, 5oF is colder.


When the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit is it warmer or colder that the freezing temperature of water?

The freezing temperature of water is 0 degrees celsius or 32 degrees fahrenheit so it is colder than the freezing temperature of water.


Is the freezing point of mercury or butter closer to the freezing point of water?

Mercury because butter does not freeze. Butter does not have a freezing point. Butter is a fat that solidifies gradually as it gets colder and does not go through a phase change (freezing) abruptly like mercury or water.Although butter will become as solid as it gets at a temperature closer to that of the freezing point of water than the freezing point of mercury.


Is salt water colder then ice?

well for something to freeze it has to be 0 degrees or lower which is what ice is, frozen water. so the water has to be 1 degree or more to NOT freeze so the ice is colder than salt watercoz salt water is not frozen... does t6hat make sense? Actually, salt water CAN be colder than ice because the salt lowers the freezing point of the water.


Why is the freezing point for ocean water lower than fresh water?

Ocean water contains salt, which lowers its freezing point compared to fresh water. This is because salt disrupts the formation of ice crystals, requiring colder temperatures for freezing to occur in ocean water.


How does temperature of water affect the time it takes to freeze into ice cubes?

What is colder than freezing?

There is nothing colder than freezing, as freezing is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid.
