General Science 181 Pre-Test

                    Lab # 8    Freezing Temperature of Ocean Water Pre Test Questions

 

 

 

1.   What is the objective of today’s lab?

 

2.    What apparatus is used in today’s lab?

       

     3.    True or False

            The freezing temperature of Sea Water higher than fresh water?

 

4.     True or False

             During winter in the Northern Hemisphere, Arctic air temperatures often dip below what

             we normally think of as the freezing point of water.

 

5.    True or False

            In winter, while many freshwater lakes freeze over, much of the ocean stays in liquid form

rather than freezing into ice.

 

 

6.    True or False

           In this experiment, you will use a Temperature Probe to measure the temperature of water as it cools and then freezes.
