Freezing point of water? -48 degrees!
Freezing point of water? -48 degrees!
We have all learned on school that water freezes at 0 degrees. But the ultimate freezing point of water is lower, thus proves to be.
No, the school books farmhouses heus not to be all rewritten. Water with smuts freezes under normal circumstances still if the temperature under the freezing point falls.
Impurities
Research worker Valeria Molinero explains it just as. If you have liquid water and you want that the ice becomes, then you must form firstly a small core or a zaadje of ice. The fluid must live it to give to ice. What can do service as those zaadjes? Nou, impurities (or smuts) in water.
Pure
The research workers aimed in their research at water that which `do not have zaadjes’. Oftewel: pure water. And from their study becomes clear that this even at extremely low temperatures still liquid can remain.
If this pure water is cooled and against the freezing point sits dread, then it arrives in a new state. That has frozen a state between liquid and. But that lasts very short. It is therefore best cumbersome the exact designate freezing point of pure water. But the research workers think that it has succeeded. They must conclude that pure water freezes at -48 degrees Celsius, thus the booklet communicatesNature.
