At what temperature (in Fahrenheit) pure water freezes?

  • A.0
  • B.17
  • C.32
  • D.39

Answer: C

Pure water freezes at 32 °F.

\[F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32 = \frac{9}{5}(0) + 32 = 32\] Fahrenheit set zero at the temperature of a brine mixture, which is why the freezing point of water falls at 32 rather than at 0 on his scale.
