For water, the heat of fusion at its normal melting point of 0 degrees Celsius is 6.0 kJ/mol. What is the entropy change when 1.59 moles of liquid H2O freezes at 0 degrees Celsius and 1 atm? What is the temperature called that is -459 degrees Fahrenhei...
freez·ing point (frē′zĭng) The temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid. For a given substance, the freezing point of its liquid form is the same as the melting point of its solid form. The freezing point of water is 32°F (0°C); that of liquid nitrogen is -345.75°F ...
freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein (蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. Whenitwas removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point. ...
