If ice forms on the outside of the glass cup, wich would be the likely temperature?

Question

1. 36 degrees F

2. 25 degrees F

3. 40 degrees F

4. 80 degrees F

6. 33 degrees F

Answer 1

Number 2: 25 degrees

Reasons:

1. 36 degrees F: Not cold enough to freeze

3. 40 degrees F: Too high to freeze

4. 80 degrees F: WAY TO HIGH!!!

6. 33 degrees F: Almost there, but still the freezing point is 32.

Answer 2

Probably number 2.

Answer 3

25 degrees farenheit

reason, water freezes over at 32 degrees farenheit. So it is logical that the temperature is below freezing point of water

we need to remember that a temperature of 32 degrees farenheit or lower is needed so that the process of freezing will occur (it could be further explained using enthalpy values, but I believe this is still elem/high school chem right?
