Answer:

A

Explanation:

An antifreeze is a substance which when added to a liquid reduces the freezing point of the liquid. Hence the solution can only freeze at a lower temperature compared to the solvent. Examples of antifreeze includes salt and propylene glycol. Antifreeze are used in low temperature environments to prevent water from freezing quicky. Hence the answer is A.
