What is the freezing point of water in Fahrenheit?

• A. 32 F
• B. 0 F
• C. 212 F
• D. 100 F

Answer: (A)

The freezing point of water at standard atmospheric pressure is 32 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the Fahrenheit equivalent of 0 degrees Celsius (because F = C × 9/5 + 32, so 0 °C = 32 °F). At 32 °F water changes from liquid to solid, whereas 212 °F is the boiling point at sea level, and 0 °F is well below freezing. The option 32 °F is the precise temperature where liquid water freezes under normal conditions.
