What are freezing, melting and boiling points? Can you increase or decrease them? Learn with Kimavi in just one minute!

Freezing Point: The temperature at which a liquid turns into a solid.

Can decrease by adding a freezing agent such as salt or alcohol. Example: water freezes at 0°C (32°F).

Melting Point: The temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid.

Can decrease by adding a melting agent such as salt or sugar. Example: ice melts at 0°C (32°F).

Boiling Point: The temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas.

Can increase by increasing the pressure or adding a boiling agent such as salt or sugar. Example: water boils at 100°C (212°F).

Supercooling: The process of cooling a liquid below its freezing point without it becoming solid. Example: a carbonated drink can be supercooled and turned into a slushy.
