Antifreeze is a "must have" in an Albertan winter because it helps keep your vehicle engine from freezing in cold temperatures.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Products such as antifreeze are composed of organic compounds that are classified as <em>alcohols</em>. (a)

Maybe those other classes of chemicals also lower the freezing temperature of water, just like alcohol does.  I don't know.  But alcohol is what's used to make anti-freeze.  I'm guessing alcohol must be cheaper, less toxic, and less corrosive inside the engines' cooling systems than any of that other stuff is.

Explain why a cow that touches an electric fence experiences a mild shock
Minchanka [31]
The voltage exists between the fence and the ground.  The cow is grounded. The cow is touching the ground, completing the circuit of electricity. <span>When the cow comes into contact with the fence, it becomes an electric ground which sends an electric current into the cow, through the cow, and into the ground. The pain experienced from the shock is due to the current that flows through the cow.</span>
