Type in either field to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius or from Celsius to Fahrenheit: Fahrenheit is a temperature scale used for describing temperatures in Fahrenheit degrees (F). It is most commonly used in the United States in weather forecasts and to describe temperatures inside houses, offices, etc.
The freezing point of very PURE cyclohexane measured with aCALIBRATED thermometer is 6.5Â°C. You may obtain different freezing point depending on the purity of your cyclohexane and the accuracy of your thermometer reading.
A more specific definition of freezing point is the temperature at which solid and liquid phases coexist in equilibrium. The normal freezing point is the temperature at a substance melts (or freezes) at one atmosphere (760 torr = 760 mm Hg = 14.7 psi = 101.3 kPa) of pressure. Melting points can be determined by visual inspection or by monitoring the temperature of the liquid with time. When the freezing point is reached, the temperature of the solution will no longer drop until all the liquid has frozen.
