Sure anti-freeze will freeze .... depending on what it's rated for . It'll also boil over . You can get some anti-freeze thats good to -20 or some that good till -50 .

Also depends at the ratio its mixed at .

EVERYTHING freezes. at absolute 0 everything is frozen. its like -200 and some odd degrees kelvin. everything is frozen solid at absolute 0. its supposed to imposible to reach because they cant build anything to hold tempratures that low but they have gotten pretty damn close.

yep...i learned that on the discovery channel...

Yeah .... I deal with -40 more often than none during the winter . We actually just changed all the anti-freeze in all our vehicules because the temps have started to dip below 0 degrees celcius ( freezing point) . Almost time to start plugging the cars in or else they wont start in the mornings .

Did you know that Antarctica has the coldest average annual temperatures, and the lowest temperature ever recorded on earth -89.2 °C (-129 °F) was at Vostok on July 21, 1983.

This tells about Absolute Zero. Pretty good article

Also depends at the ratio its mixed at . ahh thats right, you wont believe the arguments ive gotten into with people told me that it doesnt freeze. they spit on themselves arguing. pure anit-freeze will freeze solid until it is mixed with water which makes the chemical reaction, thus makes it not freeze!!!

It snowed for the first time this season about 2 weeks ago . All this week , the temps have gone below freezing every night . It won't be long until the first layer of ice starts to form on the lakes . Winters in my area usually last from late October to about mid May .

The company I work for does some of the most critical torture tests on products that we sell . We have supplied many snowmobile parts and winter clothing to the people that run the monitoring station in Antarctica . If you REALLY wanna know if a product works , you send it there . If it survives -89 celcius , it will sure as hell survive -15 celcius .

Ummm..... Kelvin starts at the theoretical absolute zero.
