Every different substance has a different freezing point. Just because water freezes at zero degrees Celsius is no reason why air should do so. Water molecules attract each other more strongly than air molecules do, because of their asymmetrical shape, which gives them positive and negative poles.

At what temperature does water freeze in mid-air?

Water freezes in mid-air at a temperature of 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius.


When and how does air freeze?

Ice is frozen liquid, mainly water. Water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius or 33 degrees Fahrenheit. Other liquids freeze at different temperatures.


What temp does air freeze?

It can freeze in mid-air if the temp. is below 32 degrees. Best is when it is below 0 degrees


How long does it take for cold water to freeze?

It all depends on the temperature of the air that it is in contact with, the air has to be at least 0 degrees Celsius so you cannot work out how quickly it will freeze without knowing the air temperature ;)


Would a balloon filled with minus 2 degrees Celsius air move to room temperature of 8 degrees Celsius Explain?

A balloon filled with -2 degrees Celsius air will move to a room to a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius because of the collision of the air particles.


Why doesn't air freeze at 0 degree Celsius?

Air is made mostly of nitrogen and nitrogen freezes at -185 Celsius.


If the air is colder than zero degrees Celsius all the way down what will happen?

If the air temperature is consistently below zero degrees Celsius all the way down, it could lead to the formation of snow or ice on surfaces. Water droplets in the air would freeze, creating frost, snow, or ice depending on the conditions.

What is methane at 25 degrees celsius?

At 25 degrees Celsius, methane exists in a gaseous state, as it has a boiling point of -161.5 degrees Celsius. It is a colorless and odorless gas that is lighter than air.


What temperature does water freeze in Celsius?

Zero degrees Celsius. The Celsius temperature scale was defined with zero as the freezing point of water, and 100 as the boiling point of water. (That's for pure fresh water at sea-level atmospheric pressure. Adding impurities to the water will change the freezing and boiling temperatures, and different air pressures will change the boiling temperature of water.)
