Because antifreeze is made up, mostly, of non-polar molecules. Water is made up of the polar molecule H2O. A slightly negative charge on the oxygen end and a slightly positive charge on the hydrogen end. This forms many temporary hydrogen bonds between the molecules of water which impedes their massive vibration ( which is what heat is ) and allow a high vaporization point also. Antifreeze has no such bonds and easily begins vibrating massively with the application of energy.

Why do flowers drink cold water quicker than warm water?
Flowers drink cold water faster.
Why does evaporating alcohol cool faster than water?
Because alcohol has a much lower boiling point so more exaporates quicker and makes the remaining alochol cold as it consumes latent heat to evaporate.
Why does water evaporate quicker on a hot day than on a cold day?
Evaporation is determined by the speed of particles. It occurs when some particles move faster than others and have enough energy to break the surface of the solution and become vapor. Temperature measures the speed of particles, so if the temperature is high, the particles will move faster and will evaporate quicker.
Does salt water melt quicker than regular water?
water doesn't melt when salt is added to ICE it lowers the temperature at which water freezes.
Which holds more heat salt water or fresh water?
Salt water holds more heat than fresh water
Why does oil heat faster than water?
because oil has fat in it so its heat quicker and water has no fat i do catering
Is salt water heated quickly than fresh water?
yes salt water is heat quicker
What does undiluted antifreeze to do an engine?
During the summer your engine would actually run hotter because antifreeze has a lower specific heat than does water. (That means a pure antifreeze solution will act as a better insulator than water---less heat will be transferred through the pure antifreeze solution.) Even during the winter, a 100 percent antifreeze solution isn't a good idea. A pure antifreeze solution actually provides less protection against freezing than does a mix solution.
Will putting straight antifreeze in your rad affect your heat?
A mixture of 50% water and 50% antifreeze will transfer heat better than straight antifreeze and still protect the system from freezing up to at least 34 degrees below zero F.
Do volkswagons us antifreeze quicker than most cars?
Volkswagen or any other vehicle shouldn't use any antifreeze. If any car is using antifreeze something is wrong.
Why does water evaporate quicker than diesel?
This depends on whether you mean evaporates due to heat or its volatility. if you mean due to heat, then obviously water, as the forces holding the molecules together are much stronger in hydrocarbons compared to standard water molecules.
Why does the air temperature get warmer quicker than water?
Heat travels faster in water because the molecules are more tightly packed than the molecules in air, allowing more contact with ice and greater rate of heat transfer.
What amount of Antifreeze should be mixed with water to put in car?
50 / 50 mixture of antifreeze and preferably distilled water usually ( Ford says not to have less than 40 % antifreeze and not more than 60 % antifreeze )
Does hot water melt ice quicker than cold water?
it does melt it quicker i checked
Why the sand warms up quicker than the water?
Water is a good convector of heat so as the surface warms, the heat is passes to the lower portions of water. Sand does not convect or conduct heat well so the surface gets hot fast as the sun shines on it
Why does land warm and cool more quickly than water and how does it affect your air temperature?
Diffusion of heat from land is quicker than water. thus temperature of air on land flactutes faster than in the ocean.
What are the main causes for the floods in Mumbai?
During the summer,the heat causes the water in the ocean to evaporate quicker than in the winter. The water forms clouds which get heavy and it pours.
