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.
Any ice cube will melt if put in any temperature over 32*F because it will be over freezing point Any ice cube will melt if put in any temperature over 32*F because it will be over freezing point
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".
Hot water, salt, and fire
Heat or humidity
Road salt
Salt water will melt an ice cube faster.
When sugar is in water, it dissolves faster than salt does. I do not know the scientific reason why, but sugar melts faster.
Sugar melts faster in hot tea because the heat of the water causes it to melt more quickly. Iced water is very cold and the sugar takes longer to dissolve.
sugar melts ice the fastest. i did a science experiment and my question was does salt sugar or pepper melt ice faster and my answer was sugar try it
When a substance dissolves in water, water molecules get between the particles of the dissolved substance, separating them.
Sugar. Salt often slows down the process of melting, so sugar is what would melt it faster.
Salt water will melt an ice cube faster.
sugar
Salt will melt first.
When sugar is in water, it dissolves faster than salt does. I do not know the scientific reason why, but sugar melts faster.
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.
It is when you use the heat from cooking to melt sugar into a sticky, yummy substance.
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)."
Salt
Because if not it will melt faster
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.
