I know it sounds a little stupid, but supercooling is when water remains a liquid while it is below freezing point. Note, only some waters can do this.

∙ 9y agoTo be supercooled, a liquid is cooled below its freezing point without becoming a solid or crystallizing. This can be accomplished by manipulating pressure.

Can tap or spring water be supercooled?
In order for water to be supercooled, there must not be impurities that can act as nucleation sites within the water. Spring water should work, though tap water would more than likely need to be purified before it would be supercooled, as by reverse osmosis.
When supercooled raindrops freeze on contact with solid objects?
ice
Is icing a liquid or a solid?
Well, icing often contains dextrose (powdered sugar, which sometimes also contains flour), milk and/or water, shortening and/or margarine, and flavoring. The greases likely would be considered supercooled liquids, milk and/or water is a liquid, and flour is a solid in the form of particulates. So it is a mixture of liquids and solids.
A sample of glass is a supercooled liquid rather than a true solid?
It has no crystallized structure
Which liquid turns solid on heating?
A supercooled liquid can become solid on heating.

What liquids can be supercooled?
Only helium can become a supercooled liquid. Any other substance will solidify at the temperature needed to create a superfluid.
Why amorphous solids are sometimes referred to as supercooled liquids?
Scientists believe the regular repeating molecular pattern is the hallmark of the solid phase.

What is a mineral used for making glass?
The two main constituents of glass are : Silicon Dioxide , Sodium Carbonate. Alumina or borosilicate are added depending on the nature of the glass required. Glass is a 'supercooled' liquid. , that is a liquid below its natural freezing point. Supercooled liquids do not have a crystalline structure, which pure solids have. However, glass if left for long periods of time (hundreds of years) may start to 'cloud', this is the crystals forming from the supercooled liquid.

How would you make glass?
Some glass is made when liquids are "supercooled" below their freezing point. The ice may stiffen and become glass. The particles in glass are arranged more randomly than normal solids.

What is mushy snow?
A soft mixture of snow crystals and supercooled raindrops.
