Tending to freeze; for freezing; hence, cold or distant in manner.
The change in state of matter from liquid to solid that occurs with cooling. Usually used in meteorology when discussing the formation of ice from liquid water.
A descriptor, FZ, used to describe drizzle and/or rain that freezes on contact with the ground or exposed objects, and used also to describe fog that is composed of minute ice crystals.
the process of converting a liquid into a solid by the removal of heat.
The change of phase from a liquid into a solid.
Changing from a liquid to a solid.
the withdrawal of heat to change something from a liquid to a solid
the point at which cold turns liquid into solid.
The change in state from a liquid to a solid.
When a liquid changes to a solid.
A liquid turning into a solid
The change of state from a liquid to a solid.
the process of converting a liquid or gas to a solid state
This is the changing of a liquid to a solid state.
The change in a substance from a liquid to a solid state.
The process of phase transition from liquid to solid state.
1. The phase transition of a substance passing from the liquid to the solid state; solidification; the opposite of fusion. In meteorology, this almost invariably applies to the freezing of water. The phase change from the gaseous to the solid state is deposition. Like condensation, the freezing of water involves the process of nucleation. See ice point, freezing point, true freezing point, melting point. 2. Said of an environment when its temperature is equal to or less than 0°C (32°F). See freeze.
the changing of phase from water to ice in soil or rock.
In physics and chemistry, freezing is the process of cooling a liquid to the temperature (called freezing point) where it turns into a solid. Melting, the process of turning a solid to a liquid, is the opposite of freezing. For most substances, melting and freezing temperatures are equal.
