Question

You are given two samples of water labelled as ‘A’ and ‘B’. Sample ‘A’ boils at 100°C and sample ‘B’ boils at 102°C. Which sample of water will not freeze at 0°C? Comment. 

Answer 1

Sample ‘B’ will not freeze at 0°C because it is not pure water. At 1 atm, the boiling point of pure water is 100°C and the freezing point of pure water is 0°C.
