Why is water used as a coolant in car radiators?
Water is used as coolant in car radiators because it has high specific heat capacity of 4200 Joules. It has the highest specific heat capacity than any other substance. That is why it is used as coolant in car radiators
Is antifreeze added to car radiators to lower the freezing point of water?
Yes. The antifreeze/coolant also raises the boiling point and has lubricant and anti corrosive properties.
What gas is in radiators?
Radiators are typically filled with a mixture of water and antifreeze coolant. This coolant helps regulate the temperature of the engine by absorbing heat and preventing freezing or boiling.
How is the properties of water glycerol and oil compaired to the properties of the liquid in radiators?
The more vigorously they oscillate, the more energy they have, the hotter the metal (more heat). If the metal is heated too much, the atoms oscillate too vigorously to stay at their fixed positions hope this helps :-)
What liquids are used in radiators?
Coolant, which is typically a mixture of water and antifreeze, is used in radiators to help regulate the temperature of the engine by absorbing and dissipating heat. Some vehicles may also use alternative coolant solutions such as propylene glycol or ethylene glycol.
What properties of water contribute to pollution?

Can water be used as an engine coolant?
Yes and no. Water is an excellent coolant but does not have all the properties of antifreeze. Water provides no freeze protection or corrosion resistance.
What are the properties of radiator liquid and what is the liquids in radiators?
Liquids in radiators are usually water & oil. The properties of these are that they heat up fairly quickly and store energy for a long time, releasing heat energy slowly. This makes the radiator effective in what it is designed to do.
What liquid is used in radiators?
In most vehicles, a mixture of water and antifreeze (ethylene glycol or propylene glycol) is used as the liquid in radiators. This mixture helps to regulate the temperature of the engine and prevent freezing or boiling over.
What is the better coolant for a car engine antifreeze or water?
Always use antifreeze. Water does not have any water pump lubricants or anti corrosion properties, antifreeze coolant does.
How do the properties of oil water and glycerol compare to others used in radiators?
Properties of oil, water, and glycerol compare to others used in radiations are very different because of their different density, flows, and material make ups.
Engine Coolant for a 2005 suzuki drz400?
Suzuki shop manual says ethylene glycol antifreeze designed for aluminum radiators. Mix 50:50 with distilled water.
