I am doing a project for college, and need to find out if anti-freeze can freeze and when.
I have no idea how to go about finding out if it is possible so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks :)

Well, two obvious ideas spring to mind.
(1) Do a search (e.g. at your library, or on the internet) to find information about antifreeze
(2) Design an experiment to determine what you seek

What have you tried so far?

P.S. homework-type questions should go into the homework forums.

What is the main solvent in antifreeze? What types of solutes are there and in what concentrations?

Could you employ the equations of colligative properties for the solution of antifreeze?
