The Freezing Point
The freezing point is defined as the temperature in which a liquid changes to a solid state. For example, the freezing point of water (under standard atmospheric pressure) is 0°C (32°F). This is also known as the ice point...the point at which water turns to ice.
Chances are that you prefer ice with your soda, enjoy ice-skating at a nearby rink or have seen an artist carve a fancy ice sculpture from a solid chunk of ice. Although these are all terrific uses of ice, do you want to know about one of the most amazing feats ever accomplished with ice?
