Solution

  • The temperature at which liquid transforms into a solid is known as the freezing point.

The factors affecting the freezing point are given below.

  1. Intermolecular forces: If the intermolecular forces are high, then the freezing point is also high. If the forces are weak then the freezing point is low.
  2. Pressure: With the increase in pressure, the freezing point also increases.
