Jun 29, 2014. The presence of a solute lowers the freezing point of any solvent; this effect is called freezing-point depression. The key to understanding this effect is that the solute is present in the liquid solution, but not in the pure solid solvent. Example: think of pure ice cubes floating in salt water.
The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a solid is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at standard pressure. When considered as the temperature of the reverse change from liquid to solid, it is referred to as the freezing point or crystallization point. Because of the ability of some substances to supercool, the freezing point is not considered as a characteristic property of a substance.
