Question:

Instructions on a container of antifreeze (ethylene glycol; fp, -12.6 °C, bp, 197.3 °C) give the following volumes of Prestone to be used in protecting a 12 qt cooling system against freeze-up at different temperatures (the remaining liquid is water): 10 °F, 3 qt; 0 °F, 4 qt; -15 °F, 5 qt; -34 °F, 6 qt. Since the freezing point of the coolant is successively lowered by using more antifreeze, why not use even more than 6 qt of antifreeze (and proportionately less water) to ensure the maximum protection against freezing?
