Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.)
1. When the forecast calls for freezing rain, salt is often spread on the roads. Why is this
done?
To make sure that the freezing substance does not stick to the cement.
2. Antifreeze is added to car radiators to prevent the water in the radiators from
both freezing and boiling. How do you think antifreeze affects the
temperatures at which water freezes (the freezing point) and boils (the boiling
point)?
It holds heat when it is cold, and it releases heat when it is warm.
