A bottle of soda can be in the freezer for around 4 hours to 6 hours before it explodes although larger bottles of soda such as 20 ounce bottles of soda will explode after 5 hours to 6 hours in the freezer and a 2 liter bottle of soda will explode in the freezer after 6 hours or so.
Diet sodas will freeze faster than regular sodas in the freezer due to the lack of sugar and diet sodas could explode in the freezer within 1 to 2 hours.
You can also freeze soda into ice cubes but the soda will take longer than water to freeze.
While soda can be frozen into ice cubes the carbonation of the soda will be lost but the flavor of the soda will remain.
Freezing soda into ice cubes is better than freezing water into ice cubes for your soda as it prevents the soda from being watered down as the ice melts.
Freezing soda into ice cubes takes around 4 hours to 6 hours.
Water freezes faster than soda and other sugary drinks.
Pure water will freeze at 32 F and the freezing point of sodas and sugary drinks is lower due to the presence of the sugar and even other solutes.
The solutes in sodas interfere with the formation of ice crystals, which require a lower temperature to freeze.
The freezing point of sugary sodas is 30 F degrees.
Diet sodas however that lack the sugar that regular sodas contain freeze at 32 F which is the same temperature as water.
Liquid that doesn't freeze are helium as well as alcohol and very sugary drinks and sugary liquids.
Alcohol and very sugary drinks or very sugary liquids won't freeze in normal freezing conditions unless it gets really low below freezing.
Some people even mix a bit of cranberry juice in their water bottles such as when going cross country skiing or being out in really cold temperatures.
The cranberry juice is also healthy for you as well as the water.
Helium is the only substance that remains a liquid at normal atmospheric pressure even down to absolute zero 0 Kelvin or -273.15 C.
Helium can be solidified under extreme pressure.
Helium has extremely weak interatomic forces, which means that the attraction between helium's atoms is minimal.
And at very low temperatures, the tendency for the molecules to arrange themselves in a crystalline structure "minimizing energy" is overcome by the tendency of the liquid to maximize entropy disorder.
And at extremely low temperatures, the liquid helium will transition into a superfluid state and exhibit unique properties such as zero viscosity and an ability to flow without friction.
Even other liquids can be supercooled, which means that the liquids can be cooled below their freezing point without it solidifying, although the liquids will still also freeze eventually if the temperature is low enough or a nucleation site is introduced.
Examples of this are water and even certain types of antifreeze.
