	Freezing Point - MSN Encarta
		The freezing point of a pure (unmixed) liquid is essentially the same as the melting point of the same substance in its solid form and may be regarded as the temperature at which the solid and liquid states of the substance are in equilibrium.
		Hence, the freezing point or melting point of a pure substance may also be defined as the temperature at which freezing or melting continues once it has commenced.
		The molecular weight of an unknown or unidentified substance may be determined by measuring the amount by which the freezing point of a solvent is lowered when a known amount of the unidentified substance is dissolved in it.

	The MSDS HyperGlossary: Freezing Point
		Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid at normal atmospheric pressure.
		The normal freezing point is the temperature at a substance melts (or freezes) at one atmosphere (760 torr = 760 mm Hg = 14.7 psi = 101.3 kPa) of pressure.
		Melting points may be lowered (depressed) by the addition of a soluble material to the solution.

	Theoretical Aspects of Freezing
		Note that C' is not as high as C, because the initial freezing point is depressed as a result of the solute.
		The freezing time is usually defined as the time from the onset of nucleation to the endof the crystal growth phase.
		The freezing curve predicts the amount of ice at any given temperature, which is a function of freezing point depression and hence the number of solutes (concentration of sugar, etc.).

	Freezing and Food Safety
		Freezing preserves food for extended periods because it prevents the growth of microorganisms that cause both food spoilage and foodborne illness.
		Freeze unopened vacuum packages as is. If you notice that a package has accidentally been torn or has opened while food is in the freezer, the food is still safe to use; merely overwrap or rewrap it.
		When it is freezing outside and there is snow on the ground, it seems like a good place to keep food until the power comes on; however, frozen food can thaw if it is exposed to the sun's rays even when the temperature is very cold.

		Freezing point depression is not just another way of referring to the early February blues.
		For example, consider the effect that salt has on the melting point of ice (which is the same as the freezing point of water).
		In general, for dilute solutions, the amount of change in the freezing point is proportional to the concentration of the solute in the solution.

	Freezing Point of 40% Isopropyl
		The change in freezing point of the solution is the freezing point depression constant of water (-1.86 C per mole solute per kilogram solvent) multiplied by the solution's molality.
		This means that for every mole of solute dissolved per kilogram of solvent, the freezing point of water drops by 1.86 C from water's actual freezing point of 0 C (32 F).
		Water freezes to form ice and the higher concentration of isopropanol in the remaining liquid lowers the freezing point further, and more water ice forms.

	Leading Publication Shut Down In China (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The decision to shut down Freezing Point, a four-page weekly feature section of the state-run China Youth Daily that often tested the censors and challenged the party line, came less than a month after the authorities replaced the top editors of another daring newspaper, the Beijing News.
		Because any move to punish it would almost certainly require his approval, the decision to close Freezing Point was seen as further evidence of Hu's personal support for a tightening of controls on the media that began two years ago, about a year after Hu took office.
		Party officials summoned the senior editors of the China Youth Daily and ordered Freezing Point closed a day after distributing a five-page document that accused the section of "viciously attacking the socialist system" and condemned a recent article in it that criticized the history textbooks used in Chinese middle schools.

	Freezing @ iCookClub.com
		In physics and chemistry, freezing is the process of cooling a liquid to the temperature (called freezing point) where it turns solid.
		The freezing point for water is only the same temperature as the melting point when nucleators are present to prevent supercooling.
		Freezing is a common method of food preservation which slows both food decay and the growth of micro-organisms and, by turning water to ice, makes it unavailable for bacterial growth and chemical reactions (see frozen food).

		The current official freezing point limit (-0.525 degrees Horvet or -0.505 degrees C; see Sherbon 1988 for discussion of Horvet vs Centigrade) was designed for whole-herd, bulk-tank samples or processed milk samples, and not for samples from individual cows or individual quarters.

		The freezing point of the solvent (the temperature at which solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium) is determined by cooling the solution and plotting a graph of temperature as a function of time.
		However, a solution will freeze over a range of temperatures and will not exhibit the constant freezing point of the pure liquid; instead of exhibiting a horizontal portion, the plot will show a change of slope when solid solvent begins to form.
		In practice, it is necessary to first determine the freezing point of the solvent alone, since the solvent may not be pure.

	The Freezing of Human Oocytes (Eggs)
		Cryoprotectant is the term used to refer to the fluid that is used to place the eggs in prior to freezing, and is usually a mixture of sugars and organic chemical liquids that are designed to buffer the egg cell during the stresses of freezing and thawing.
		To put egg freezing into context, it is interesting to consider that human sperm (spermatozoa) have been successfully frozen for decades, and that the first successful report of human embryo freezing that generated a pregnancy was in 1983.
		As the initial concerns with egg freezing are being eroded by better understanding of the principals of cryopreserving such large and delicate cells, and by better technology, there becomes less and less reason not to start taking this form of tissue storage more seriously.

		The lower chemical potential of solution water shifts the point of intersection to the left, so the freezing point of the solution is lower than the freezing point of the pure solvent.
		That would suggest that equal concentrations of ions or molecules cause equal freezing point depressions, regardless of what the solute is. Experimental results agree with this prediction, so long as the concentrations are low.
