Answer 3

Technically, salt water does not freeze.

The icebergs in the oceans have been tested extensively and they are only chemically composed of water and air pockets.



The salt tends to shift to the outside edge of the berg.

The salt can actually be scraped off the edges of the giant ice block.

So for all technical purposes the frozen substance is actually just water and nothing more.

The freezing point of the ocean water is considerably higher then that of plain H2O.

Remember that dissolving any substance in water raises or lowers the freezing and boiling point.
