What is Freezing?

Freezing is the process in which a liquid changes into a solid as its temperature decreases below its freezing point. This is a physical change that occurs when the particles in a substance slow down and begin to form a more rigid, organized structure.

Study Guide for Freezing

Definition: Freezing is the process in which a liquid changes into a solid as its temperature decreases below its freezing point.
Freezing Point: The temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid is known as its freezing point.
Examples: Common examples of freezing include water turning into ice and liquid chocolate hardening into a solid when cooled.
Importance: Freezing is an important process in food preservation, as well as in the formation of ice in nature.
Effect of Impurities: Impurities can lower the freezing point of a substance, which is why salt is often used to melt ice on roads and sidewalks.
