You are given two samples of water labelled as 'A' and 'B'. Sample 'A' boils at 100^oC and sample 'B' boils at 102^oC. Which sample of water will not freeze at 0^oC? Comment.

Sample ‘B’ which boils at 102°C contains impurities. At 1 atm the boiling point of water is 100°C and the freezing point is 0°C. Hence, as sample B does not boil at 100°C, It will also not freeze at 0°C. There will be a depression in freezing point.
