It will be very similar to water (although just a bit less), so just under 32 °F or 0 °C.

Listen, if you don't know the answer to a question, don't guess. Soda is not similar to water, unless it is Diet Soda. Soda contains lots of sugar which, when dissolved in water, substantially lower the freezing point of soda. It is under pressure, especially when canned, which also makes it freeze at a lower temperature. And it contains acids which also will slightly lower the freezing point of soda. And, finally, it contains salt which further lowers the freezing level. While diet soda -- which is sugar free -- will freeze just under 32 degrees, regular soda will require a much lower temperature to freeze, usually well below 20 degrees and perhaps under 15 degrees, depending on other factors such as speed of onset of temperature reduction, etc.

It depends on the soda, but pretty close to 0.

The molal freezing point depression for water is about 1.8 degrees (Celcius). This means that if you dump a mole of (non-polar) solvent into a kilogram of water, the new freezing point will be around -1.8 degrees Celcius. If you can dissolve two moles in there, it will be -3.6 Celcius. And so on.

There are maybe 120 grams of sugar per liter in a typical soft drink. If we assume that's all fructose and/or glucose (which have the same molecular weight but different structural formulae), that's about 2/3 of a mole, so the freezing point will be about -1.2 degrees from the sugar (cane sugar, sucrose, has a higher molecular weight, and the freezing point will not be depressed as much ... about half as much in pure cane sugar sodas). The carbonation adds a bit as well ... about a fifth of a mole per liter (though it's more complicated, because dissolved carbon dioxide exists partly as dissolved carbon dioxide, partly as carbonic acid, partly as hydrogen carbonate, partly as carbonate ion ... let's say it contributes about half a mole of "stuff" total and call it close enough). That puts us at around -2 degrees, and in most sodas nothing else amounts to even a small fraction of a mole; we might get another half a degree out of everything else that's in there combined, but probably not more than that.

All the above assumes that you meant "fizzy soft drinks". If you meant sodium carbonate, then it doesn't make a great deal of sense to talk about it's "freezing point" ... it's solid at room temperature and decomposes before it melts.

Why does shaking soda freeze faster than regular soda in the freezer?

Soda freezes faster because the sugar in the soda lowers its freezing rate and freezing point.


Which liquid freezes the fastest soda or oil?

Soda would freeze faster because it contains water, the syrups and preservatives have little effect on the freezing temperature. Oil is a refined hydrocarbon with a much lower freezing point, which makes it advantageous to use in automobiles as a lubricant.

Why does baking soda lower the freezing temperature of water?

Because when baking soda is added to water the chemicals react as a freezing component causing the temperature to decrease by 1-5 degrees

Does soda have a freezing point?

yes, soda has a freezing point like all other liquids. soda is just water mixed with other ingredients that make it look the way it does and taste the way it does.


What temperature is the freezing temperature?

32 degrees Fahrenheit (or 0 degrees celsius) is the point of freezing.


Is soda freezing in the freezer a chemical change?

Soda freezing in the freezer is a physical change and not a chemical change. This is because the liquid is only changing into a solid.


When the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit is it warmer or colder that the freezing temperature of water?

The freezing temperature of water is 0 degrees celsius or 32 degrees fahrenheit so it is colder than the freezing temperature of water.


What conditions are required for it to sleet?

ground temperature below freezing, and air temperature slightly above freezing.


Are melting and freezing point of Platinum are same?

Yes the melting temperature and the freezing temperature of materials are the same.
