About This Answer
Water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius (32°F), the foundation of the metric temperature scale developed by Anders Celsius in 1742. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Celsius scale sets water's freezing and boiling points as key reference temperatures. The International System of Units adopted Celsius as the standard temperature measurement for most scientific work. Modern chemistry and physics rely on this scale for precise temperature measurements. The 0°C freezing point provides an intuitive reference for weather forecasting and everyday temperature discussions worldwide.
