Alcohol will freeze, but only at extremely low temperatures. Water's freezing point is 0 degrees Celcius, but the freezing point of ethanol (the alcohol you're talking about) is -114 degrees Celsius. Ultra-low temperature freezers (which are the coldest you can buy) have temperatures between -50 and -90 degrees Celcius.

The easy answer to your question is because alcohol's freezing point is -117 degrees and water's freezing point is 0 degrees. Your refrigerator doesn't get cold enough to freeze alcohol. A better answer is motion.

name Sue C. status student age 40s Question - I know that when ice begins to freeze (at 0 degrees C)dissolved ions move out so the ice is purer than the water that forms it, yet, I understand that alcohols are not forced out, and alcohol will prevent the water from freezing.
