Melting IceWater...It has the highest substance heat capacity i.e. water requires the largest loss of heat per mole to change phase (to freeze) and , (vice versa) ice requires the greatest amount of heat to change phase (to melt). all other things being constant, for example non-substances radiation and conduction heating.

Solutes

Calcium chloride is the fastest thing I've seen melt ice. They sell it as Dowflake.

Dowflake is nice because it's noncorrosive to metal, unlike salt. It's also really expensive.

Nitrates

A very well-disolving salt - try a nitrate. Nitrate is the definition of dissolvable.

The Question was Multiple Choice

If there was anything that would melt ice fast, it would be molten lava. In fact, it melts and vaporizes almost simultaneously. One of the best ways to melt ice at room temperature is to set it on a large block of aluminum, which loses heat rapidly to the air.

Salt will help melt ice faster than will either sugar or flour. This is because salt is an electrolyte and ionizes into two or more ions (depending on which salt you use: NaCl gives 2 ions, CaCl2 gives 3 ions). Neither flour nor sugar ionize, so they are less effective in lowering the freezing point and melting the ice. This is all found under the topic of "colligative properties".

Does ice melt faster to salt or sugar?

Sugar. Salt often slows down the process of melting, so sugar is what would melt it faster.


Will flour water or salt water melt an ice cube faster?

Salt water will melt an ice cube faster.


Will ice melt faster with salt or sugar?

sugar


Which substance will melt the ice first salt or sugar?

Salt will melt first.


Does salt or sugar melt faster?

When sugar is in water, it dissolves faster than salt does. I do not know the scientific reason why, but sugar melts faster.


Does a ice cube with flour on it melt faster than one with out?

Well actually it does. It takes about 1 hour for ice to melt by itself. If it has flour on it, it might take about40 minutes to melt.


What is caramelizing?

It is when you use the heat from cooking to melt sugar into a sticky, yummy substance.


What is the hypothesis of this question what makes ice melt the fastest sand salt sugar or sugar?

You need to determine what you think will melt the fastest, and that will be your hypothesis. If you think that pepper will melt it faster, you would say "My hypothesis is that the pepper will melt ice faster than the other variables (sand, salt, and sugar)."


Does salt make ice melt faster or does sugar?

Salt


Why sugar add in ice cream?

Because if not it will melt faster


Does white sugar melt faster in hot water than brown sugar?

Sugar of either color does not "melt" in hot water but rather dissolves; brown sugar has some impurities which are not so soluble in water, so that white sugar will seem to dissolve faster.


Does brown sugar melt faster than white sugar in hot water?

Sugar of either color does not "melt" in hot water but rather dissolves; brown sugar has some impurities which are not so soluble in water, so that white sugar will seem to dissolve faster.
